I've taken one last step and that is to discover that if the ntp.conf
file is NOT changed before you install that later version then
everything works as you'd expect; i.e. only one version is on the box.
However, if the ntp.conf is different it leaves both versions on the
box. I've updated the bugzilla database:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=110321
to reflect what I found today. Thanks for your input!
