hello - i am testing out the new ntpd that was committed yesterday and am attempting to run as non-root.  i've created a ntpd user/group, and verified permissions look good on pertinent directories.  i am running into an issue with the rc script tho - it's complaining about multiple pid files being specified?

$ sudo /etc/rc.d/ntpd start
Starting ntpd.
ntpd error:  only one pidfile option allowed
ntpd - NTP daemon program - Ver. 4.2.8p11
Usage:  ntpd [ -<flag> [<val>] | --<name>[{=| }<val>] ]... \
        [ <server1> ... <serverN> ]
Try 'ntpd --help' for more information.
/etc/rc.d/ntpd: WARNING: failed to start ntpd


has anyone else seen this issue? not sure if this is an issue with my local config or not, i've read through the rc script and its not obvious to me yet why it may be getting multiple pid arguments passed.  the only relevant bit i have set in rc.conf is:

$ grep ntpd /etc/rc.conf
ntpd_enable="YES"


thanks!
-pete
