He started ntpd with -4 (or something like that) so it didn't listen on 
IPv6 port 123.

He has localhost ::1 in his /etc/hosts

He didn't start ntpq with -4.
It defaulted to localhost which has 2 addresses.
The first was ::1 which didn't work.
ntpq didn't try the second address which was IPv4 and would have worked.


That's not a bug I'm likely to work on, but I'm fine if somebody else 
wants to fix it.
