[pkg-ntp-maintainers] Patch for #327347

Hello,

Here is a patch for a simple bug, #327347. This is my first patch (yay) for
Debian, or anything for that matter, and I am beginning down the path to
maintainer-hood, so I'd appreciate some feedback. Such as:

- is this patch all proper?
- is this the appropriate way (e-mail to the maintainer) to submit patches?
- any particular bugs in the NTP code that may be a good place for a newbie
to get his feet wet? My knowledge of C is reasonably good.

Hope to send you a few patches more before long.

Cheers,
Dave
