Aha, I see. Thanks for explaining that.

distant future, even? :-)
The two things share a common symptom; the nic on that particular
machine is a ral(4) one, and I am having connectivity problems
(connections from other machines to this particular machine drops).
That's why I booted the machine with verbose messages, and got those
messages in the first place.
It looks like network connectivity going away without the network
interface going down / up has confused ntpd, I had to restart it just
now.
