I must admit that I could never get NTP to cross-compile for the 
Raspberry Pi on a virtual machine, no problems (apart from the speed!) 
compiling it on a Raspberry Pi directly, though.

The binaries I uploaded for you were for "ntpd 4.2.7p476", Intel, 
FreeBSD 8.2.  I don't know whether they would also work with 8.1.
