Something with NTPD has changed between version 4.2.7p249 and version 4.2.7p255 that causes the ntp daemon to exit on a signal 11 and drop core. My configur- ation files have not changed in several months and the FBSD base system ntpd will still start after the 4.2.7p255 aborts. I tried starting ntpd with a debug flag and I see the dialog with my Oncore receiver and every other line is a 'interrupted system call' message.

Is anyone else able to start ntpd version 4.2.7p255 on FreeBSD?
