Don't know where else to send this minor bug report to, so here goes:

I have compiled xntp version 3.1 on a mips box running RISCos 4.52
and when I try to run tickadj I get the message:

./tickadj: namelist can't find `_noprintf'

It seems the mips boxes don't have this variable in the kernel.  Maybe
this should be #ifdef'ed in the code:


*** tickadj.c   Tue Jan  5 16:53:28 1993
--- tickadj.c.fcs       Sun Dec 13 18:41:08 1992

*** 312,318 ****
                    progname);
                err++;
        }
! #if   !defined(_AUX_SOURCE) && !defined(mips)
        if (nl[K_NOPRINTF].n_value == 0) {
                (void) fprintf(stderr, "%s: namelist can't find `_noprintf'\n",
                    progname);
--- 312,318 ----
                    progname);
                err++;
        }
! #ifndef       _AUX_SOURCE
        if (nl[K_NOPRINTF].n_value == 0) {
                (void) fprintf(stderr, "%s: namelist can't find `_noprintf'\n",
                    progname);
