>Description:
	xntpd dies if one has an interface that has an alias
	
	from /var/log/messages:

	Dec 8 15:21:15 capsicum xntpd[201]: bind() fd 13, family 2,
	port 123, addr 8cae587f, in_classd=0 flags=0 fails: Address
	already in use

>How-To-Repeat:
	ifconfig inet de1 alias x.x.x.x netmask x.x.x.x
	xntpd
	ps -axl 
	tail /var/log/messages
>Fix:
	The simplest fix is probably to upgrade to the latest xntpd
	from ftp.udel.edu:/pub/ntp .  It seems to have no problem with
	interface aliases.  I'm running "ntpd 4.0.90" and it seems to
	be working well enough.  The build requires hand-editing the
	config.h file.
