I'd like to report one, most likely an upstream problem:

'restrict' definitions in ntp.conf(5) no longer work with unqualified DNS=
 names.
A line like
"restrict time1 nomodify nopeer noquery notrap"
results in:
ntpd[1913]: line 7 column 7 syntax error, unexpected T_Time1
ntpd[1913]: syntax error in /etc/ntp.conf line 7, column 7

I've always been using unqualified hostnames with 'restrict', and since d=
efining 'server' with unqualified hostname still works, this seems to be =
a significant bug to me. People are forced to change 'restrict' definitio=
ns, but not to also change other unqualified definitions, which potential=
ly leads to misconfigurations, since intentionally matching definitions c=
an now differ easily.

Has anybody already noticed this problem? And any idea if upstream is awa=
re?
