IV. Workaround
No workaround is available,
This was fixed in ports/net/ntp on Dec 20, so a workaround exists
in the form of disabling the in-base version and installing the
port. In the future, it would be helpful to mention such.
We talk explicitly about the base system, not about ports. We never
mentioned them and I do not see a reason to start doing so.
I don't understand why you wouldn't. It's a legitimate way of
mitigating non-technical problems with system administration. For
example, many organizations make scheduling a reboot harder/slower than
scheduling the restart of a single service. Temporarily switching to
the port in such cases is a very useful bandaid.
