[ntp:questions] Linux and rlimit memlock

Folks,
We've been fielding bug reports about glibc and rlimit memlock for a
while now. We haven't gotten any closer to finding a useful solution to
this.
I'd like to make these bug reports go away.
The best idea I have right now is to declare that if we're building for
a linux target that we default rlimit memlock to 0, which disables
memory locking. If folks on these machines want to lock ntpd into
memory they can put a value that works for them into their ntp.conf
file.
Does anybody want to try and talk me out of this?
