Yup. And the default configuration is now to ignore everything except
localhost, so every time dhclient runs, it picks up the NTP servers from
DHCP, then promptly ignores them. If you change ntp.conf but not
dhclient.conf, then your ntp.conf will be overwritten whenever your DHCP
lease is renewed.

Basically, all my patch does is change "default ignore" to "default 
nomodify," which is functional but safe.
