There is at least one nasty bug in 4.2.8.
  http://bugs.ntp.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2831

Other than that, I haven't had any problems.  :(


I get a SegFault on FreeBSD.  Something very similar also happens on Fedora 
and Debian: malloc and/or pthread_create stops working.  It's all tangled up 
with DNS which means you can't use the pool if you happen to trigger this bug.


I've got a solid test case, but haven't found anything suspicious in ntp 
code.  Can anybody point me at a web page explaining how to debug libc?  
Fedora or Debian or Ubuntu.  I have no reason to be suspicious of libc code, 
but I'd like to find out what is getting smashed.
