If I try to run xntpd (the network time protocol daemon), it dumps core
due to an illegal instruction. This happens both with the snapshot from
november as the one I built myself. Does it work for anybody?

Illegal instruction - core dumped
According to gdb, it seems to have jumped to address 0x1, probably
through a bad function pointer.
# cat /etc/ntp.conf
server ntp.falu.nl
driftfile /etc/ntp.drift
On ntp.falu.nl (an Alpha), the xntpd works fine.
