This may be interesting.. https://support.ntp.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=578 Fix is provided, I haven't had a chance to test it yet.
it is merely a runtime warning and should not affect the correct running of the ntp application i dont know squat about avahi, and there's a bug open upstream, so it'll get resolved eventually applying a [possibly] incorrect change to resolve a cosmetic warning doesnt sound like a good idea to me ;)
If you are bothered with this, just change the initscript to read AVAHI_COMPAT_NOWARN="1" start-stop-daemon --start --exec /usr/sbin/ntpd \ ... and the warning will be gone. ;)
You can also add the following line en /etc/conf.d/ntpd: export AVAHI_COMPAT_NOWARN=1 IMHO it's cleaner than editing the initscript
