I'd say this unlikely:

 - while I received a kernel update, I didn't reboot so I am still running
   2.6.11-1.27_FC3:
[root at jupiter ~]# uptime
 06:34:52 up 64 days, 12:36,  2 users,  load average: 0.00, 0.18, 0.28
[root at jupiter ~]# uname -a
Linux jupiter 2.6.11-1.27_FC3 #1 Tue May 17 20:27:37 EDT 2005 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

 - ntpd stays running for several hours and dies much later; for example,
   I started it last night at 21:30, and it is still running nine hours
   later

However I will try these work-arounds.
