Whatever was fixed in between in Debian was lost up unto the last version.
So other than assumed the fix was not in.

Pinging the Debian bug and working on a Y fix (which is the prereq for a
backport)

Bug description:

  The problem is that ntpdate-debian parse  /etc/ntp.conf, searchin for the 
word "server",
  but the format of the file as changed a bit

  < server 0.ubuntu.pool.ntp.org
  < server 1.ubuntu.pool.ntp.org
  < server 2.ubuntu.pool.ntp.org
  < server 3.ubuntu.pool.ntp.org
  ---
  > pool 0.ubuntu.pool.ntp.org iburst
  > pool 1.ubuntu.pool.ntp.org iburst
  > pool 2.ubuntu.pool.ntp.org iburst
  > pool 3.ubuntu.pool.ntp.org iburst
  25c24
  < server ntp.ubuntu.com
  ---
  > pool ntp.ubuntu.com

  the word server as been replaced by "pool"
