This says that it cannot resolve an entry ('ntp') in the services database.
You need to augment the chroot with something like:

  mkdir /var/chroot/ntpd/etc
  getent services ntp/udp ntp/tcp > /var/chroot/ntpd/etc/services

netbsd-current has a modified startup script that creates the services file.
