It's there, but in a drop directory that is intentionally unbrowsable: http://davehart.net/moo/ntpd-QPC-20090614-0900.zip That represents the last in a series of 4.2.4p6-based private releases of mine. I originally developed the rewritten ntpd interpolation for Windows on this version of ntpd, but those changes were not integrated into the reference implementation until 4.2.5p162. At that point, my interest in maintaining the private 4.2.4-based releases went way down, as 4.2.4 code had forked from ntp-dev at the end of 2006, and there had been a major cleanup pass on the ntpd source in the summer of 2007 which made porting changes between 4.2.4 and 4.2.6 nontrivial. Aside from David J Taylor, a few friends of his, and myself, everyone using the new interpolation code on Windows has used 4.2.5p162 or later.
