So download the reference implementation from ntp.org and build your 
own!  Both Sun's own development tools and gcc and other Gnu stuff are 
available in Solaris.  Sun's development tools are a separate download 
from the web site.

No vendor is going to include NTP V4 in their distribution until V4 is 
standardized.  Which might happen some day or might not!  A committee 
has been working on a V4 RFC for almost two years now.  We might see 
results in another two or three years!  IOW, don't hold your breath!
