Or disable the %m warning option on NetBSD.  I think it's -Wformat

There are 93 warnings with my configure setup and all but a few are %m.  They 
are slightly longer than a line so you only get half as many per page.  You 
have to look carefully if you want to find any others.

It makes us look sloppy.  We worked hard to get (almost) no warnings.  We 
should maintain that reputation.

Also, we should document the new warnings the linker gives about tempnam from 
the python library.

Just curious.  Where in wscript land does the python library get added to 
ntpd?  (I couldn't find it the other day.)
