Hi BrianMinton!

I'm not sure if this is by chance or not, but the utility you are
referring to is available just at a newer version of openntpd, which,
coincidentally, we have been coordinating at upstream for a mayor
package port and patch refresh.

This action took place a few weeks ago and a huge software upgrade is
going to see daylight at Debian archive pretty soon, currently its just
on experimental due to some mayor changes on the driftfile and several
other patches I've been unable to confirm yet that might break backwards
compatibility at upgrade-time.

I'll be closing with the experimental upload pretty soon.


Cheers,

Dererk
