I take it you're trying to update an older build, as this is from a change added back in July.

Do not skip the "mergemaster -Fp" step before > installworld, as described in the update procedures near the bottom > of this document. Also, rc.d/ntpd now starts ntpd(8) as user ntpd > if the new mac_ntpd(4) policy is available, unless ntpd_flags or > the ntp config file contain options that change file/dir locations. > When such options (e.g., "statsdir" or "crypto") are used, ntpd can > still be run as non-root by setting ntpd_user=ntpd in rc.conf, after > taking steps to ensure that all required files/dirs are accessible > by the ntpd user.
