Hi Thomas,   
    I've tried to recreate this bug by having ntp correct a clock that is fast and also one that is slow and ntp seems to be working fine for me. I'll attach the output of the commands  I tested with. Could you include the exact steps you went through please ?
Thanks
Liam

Bug description:
  ntpd seems to add offsets instead of subtracting them from the running
  synchronized clock, leading to time running away fast in one direction
  -- forward if the offset is positive, -- backward if the offset is
  negative, until the offset reaches its maximum.
