    initial v1  
    11Actually it seems that the PR is not the best place for discussion. :-) I'm OK to have a bit more 1:1 back-and-forth here before involving the list, in case you prefer that way.

    3 After I wrote my comment in the PR, I had an idea. My suggestion is that you split the patch in 2: (1) the minimal one that fixes macOS 10.2, and (2) the minimal one for older systems (which I presume is on top of, or includes, the other one). We may have a clearer picture on how to move forward once we can see those separated.

    55P.S.: I'm impressed about the effort you put into this. You seem very invested into making NTPsec work well on macOS. If I'm right, would you be interested in taking over ownership of this port, or being a co-maintainer? I added NTPsec port to MacPorts because I strongly support the goals of the upstream project, and I wanted to use it as a replacement for NTP, but I was unaware about how little they care about having it work well on macOS. My interest has faded since then. Actually this might be the only port I maintain that I'm not actively using, which is something I don't do in general, but I didn't want to leave this orphaned. You look to me as somebody who could be a much better maintainer for this port than I am.
