Hi:
I am sort of digging my way through the OpenNTPD codebase for my work. I
think I find a bug in the code. Please help me to understand the reason

I'd take a look at your other diff later.
Thanks for patching the upstream source in cvs with my patch.

True. I generally post on the Linux lists and I believe I am spoiled by

I would like to respond to this with a small anecdote: I opened a call
at vendor x at 17/sep/2008. The call resulted in me having to open a
design change request for their OS. So, 65 days later (coincidently

(as opposed to
reporting to the community).

In function ntp_main() (ntp.c), we poll() to check if there are any
events of interest. We do this:
