That was me, amongst others. There are threads on security@ and questions at .

There were two problems reported:
1) ntpdc and ntpq would crash -- this was reported for 9.3-STABLE -- I
don't think it affected other releases, and was diagnosed as due to a
pthreads linking issue. Solved for 9.x in r290044 and r290046
2) ntpd SEGV's on startup on 10.2-RELEASE-p6 (possibly others).
Curiously, so does net/ntp from ports, but only on the second startup.
Exactly the same ntp package seems to run and restart just fine on
recent 10-STABLE though. As does the base system ntpd.
Cheers,
Matthew
