It works perfectly here.  However, there is a difference between the old
and the new version of it.  The version in woody still was it's own
binary while the version in sarge and etch is a perl script that uses
ntpq.  This script sends a different type of query that might get dropped
by configuration while the old one didn't get dropped.
