NTP not syncing?

Running 2.2d for almost a week now and noticed in the ntp client log
....snip ntp.log ......
1 Apr 23:32:48 ntpdate[972]: step time server 81.216.247.88 offset 1.604340 sec
1 Apr 23:32:50 ntpd[1058]: frequency initialized 10.009 PPM from /var/spool/ntp/ntp.drift
1 Apr 23:36:04 ntpd[1058]: synchronized to 192.53.103.108, stratum 1
1 Apr 23:36:04 ntpd[1058]: kernel time sync enabled 0001
1 Apr 23:55:26 ntpd[1058]: synchronized to 192.53.103.104, stratum 1
2 Apr 00:12:34 ntpd[1058]: synchronized to 192.53.103.108, stratum 1

Interestinly it seems that the unexpected bytes message ends about the very same time ntp messages ends in the log!

These are the last entries in the log

Other than that everything seems OK, and I cannot see that the system time is off by any noticable amout of time!

ntp on the new kernel is not making many noise it is synchronized once. So that is ok.

I drilled down verbosity of the logger, but i guess that needs installation of an update to apply...
