All I did was extract, configure, make. No editing necessary. I'm not familiar with 'ntp-4.0.72'. Where did you get it? I got xntpd 3-5.92 from the site listed above, and based on the file structure of the sources in that file it appears to be the successor to what we have in our tree. And I didn't need to edit anything in the xntpd archive I installed, it just had a few minor compiler warnings, mostly related to discarding const info.
