>Description:
When I try to use the Oncore Reference clock with NTPD, daemon crashes. This is the output in /var/log/messages:

Dec  8 00:19:15 xxx ntpd[978]: stack overflow detected; terminated



The configuration file:

xxx# cat /etc/ntp.conf
enable kernel
#pps /dev/pps0 assert hardpss
pps /dev/oncore.pps.0 assert hardpss
server 127.127.30.0 prefer
