Andrew: if this isn't related to the sysctl changes, sorry in advance, but
that's the only thing changed that I can think of between the time ntpd was
working as it used to be, and when it was working as it is now.

ntpd is running chrooted:

dive@eros:/home/dive % grep ntp /etc/rc.conf
ntpd=YES
ntpd_chrootdir="/var/chroot/ntpd"
dive@eros:/home/dive % ls -laR /var/chroot/ntpd

Nothing in the ntp configuration has changed since I upgraded from 1.6ZF to
ZG, but now I see:
