My prefer fix is still apt-get remove network-manager
I just installed network-manager 0.6.4-6ubuntu4 and it still starts ntpd before the network is up. I apt-get remove network-manager and ntp works properly again. With n-m not installed the network gets started THEN any network services are run.
These days I apt-get remove network-manager on any new install to avoid this problem.
