I am running amd64 -current from right before the CVS server went
down, i.e. post newlock2-merge.

After I start the system and login for the first time, if I run cvs
update, ntpd produces this error message:

Feb 13 22:33:22 dexamyl ntpd[1243]: sigio_handler: sigio_handler_active != 1
Feb 13 22:33:22 dexamyl ntpd[1243]: select(28, ########--------------------, 0L,
 0L, &0.0) error: Bad file descriptor
Feb 13 22:33:22 dexamyl ntpd[1243]: Bad file descriptor 27
Feb 13 22:33:22 dexamyl ntpd[1243]: sigio_handler: sigio_handler_active != 0
Feb 13 22:33:34 dexamyl ntpd[1243]: time reset +0.714964 s
Feb 13 22:33:34 dexamyl ntpd[1243]: kernel time sync status change 2001

It is 100% reproduceable on my system.  If a dmesg or kernel
configuration is needed, please do not hesistate to ask.

Regards,
