Harlan,

I just compiled the latest XNTP test release on Windows NT smoothly.
 (xntp 3-5.87.6)
There are a couple of things that should be addressed:

1. The ntpdate "man" (html) page does not mention the "-q"
   option.	[HMS-960109: fixed poorly]

2. In file ntpq.c at line 82
	#define IN 6 /* stuff.... */
   This conflicts with the use of IN as a #define in a number of
   Windows headers dcerpc.h, winsock.h, and one other.
   The name needs to be changed, otherwise this might break 
   something as Microsoft uses IN inside the winsock.h header
   similar to what you'd see in a Pascal parameter declaration.
   Strange that I hadn't bothered with this before, but I figured\
   that this should be changed.	[HMS-960109: fixed]

3. The Quicksort VOID changes aren't being picked up properly yet.
   I don't have time to figure this one out yet.  It's not
   problematic at the moment. [Fixed in enxt message from Greg]


On another note, I've been looking at some of the files with
#ifdef SYS_WINNT and been able to find a number of places where
it can be eliminated.  Specifically, putting dummy header files
into the distribution for WinNT would clean up a couple of files.
Also, changing close(fd) where fd is a socket descriptor to
closesocket(fd) would allow a Macro to swap closesocket() to
close() under Unix, and change nothing under WinNT.

Some other areas can be cleaned up, setting errno, and a couple
of Windows differences such as WSAEINTR instead of EINTR.

I just wanted to pass these thoughts on.  

Happy New Year,
  Greg
