Onboard DHCP - NTP config is incorrect)

dhcpd does not like 0.pool.ntp.org as an "option ntp-server".  It gives
this error:
Apr 17 10:06:51 www dhcpd: /etc/dhcpd.conf line 21: expecting numeric
value.
Apr 17 10:06:51 www dhcpd:         option ntp-servers
0.pool.

I had hoped that quoting the hostname would fix it, but it doesn't like
that either, with single or double quotes:
Apr 17 10:07:33 www dhcpd: /etc/dhcpd.conf line 21: ' (39): expecting IP
address or hostname
Apr 17 10:07:33 www dhcpd:         option ntp-servers              '

This seems to be a bug in dhcpd.  It is possible that it is fixed in the
most recent version (4.1.0, released Dec 2008).

So I am thinking of setting the ntp-server option to just plain
pool.ntp.org and ignoring the list of NTP servers (which defaults to
'0.pool.ntp.org, 1.pool.ntp.org, 2.pool.ntp.org', but which can be
configured if those do not respond).

Would that be satisfactory? or should I try later versions of dhcpd?
