I don't think this problem has been fixed yet. I'm running Maverick 10.10 with the updated ntp, but the problem is still occurring:

I think these are the latest packages: 42415ef5eb851dabe9d06a67cf992d28 /usr/sbin/ntpd c1d85ce075c70928b53692561fdc5277 /usr/sbin/ntpdate 79af988228131692520be14d25355a8e /usr/sbin/ntpdate-debian d4ae7ee172f7ed340c4e1b406c04d16d /usr/sbin/ntp-keygen b7f7e4e0fb1d4e2aece718b18ae28b46 /usr/sbin/ntptime 7d4b58d1da97ba46ba8eeab08b345a44 /usr/sbin/ntp-wait This is a brand new installation. The sequence of steps to reproduce this are: 1. Install Maverick on a RAID 1 system. Separate / and /home partition. 2. Install Updates 3. Install graphics card hardware driver 4. Download ifenslave. Configure bonding. Set static IP address. 5.
