tags #638287 - pending # fix commented out in SVN thanks
Petter made me aware of constant RAM consumtion by ntpd if /var/log/ntpstats is mounted on tmpfs. Searching for another way to get rid of syslog floodings...

This is probably a bad idea, as ntpd will fill up this directory with logs, and thus slowly eat RAM away from the diskless machine. I decided to not make this directory writable to avoid it, as ntpd work fine without write access to this directory. The only issue is some warnings from ntpd, and these can be ignored.
