ntpd on 8.1 cycles around select() with EBADF

[Sergey Kandaurov]

Hi.

This is the second time I noted it.

 2581 root             1 118    0 11736K  3532K CPU6    6  60.7H 100.00% ntpd

# ntpq -p
localhost: timed out, nothing received
***Request timed out

` /etc/rc.d/ntpd restart` make it work. What can be the reason ?

  2581 ntpd     CALL  select(0x420,0x7fffffffec20,0,0,0)
  2581 ntpd     RET   select -1 errno 9 Bad file descriptor
