>>> Where is this notice on that website?  I don't see it...

I'm running rc1 on FreeBSD 6.0 and I'm not seeing any memory problems;
but I did find the reference on the pool.ntp.org configuration page.
It is being reported as a LINUX issue and, as such, may not have
anything to do with the out of memory being reported here.
