Upgrading software is a good thing.
That can be "ancient release + patches" or "current supported software
that has patches".
Please see http://queue.acm.org/detail.cfm?id=2717320 for more

Thanks, this is a very nice overview on the history of NTP.
Anyway, we need to distinguish if there's a bug in the NTP code, or if
ntpd just receives wrong data from faulty refclocks.
