Binary package hint: ntp

I believe this is a duplicate of bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ntp/+bug/569919, which has a status of "Fix Released"
But I have the fix, and the problem still occurs.

Every 5 minutes, ntpd complains about being unable to create a socked on an ipv6 address. I'm running a new installation of Maverick 10.10. Here is my syslog:

I'm running ntp 1:4.2.4p8+dfsg-1ubuntu6.
FYI, here is the output of md5sum /usr/sbin/ntp*. I think these are the latest packages:

42415ef5eb851dabe9d06a67cf992d28 /usr/sbin/ntpd
c1d85ce075c70928b53692561fdc5277 /usr/sbin/ntpdate

7d4b58d1da97ba46ba8eeab08b345a44 /usr/sbin/ntp-wait

This is a brand new installation. The sequence of steps to reproduce this are:

1. Install Maverick on a RAID 1 system. Separate / and /home partition.
2. Install Updates
3. Install graphics card hardware driver
4. Download ifenslave. Configure bonding. Set static IP address.
5. Install NTP
