You are sure you don't still get the same errors for drift.TEMP?

I have the drift file in /var/lib/ntp/drift, but I get selinux errors
for drift.TEMP:

Mar  6 18:51:26 slabber ntpd[26387]: can't open
/var/lib/ntp/drift.TEMP: Permission denied
Mar  6 18:51:26 slabber kernel: audit(1110131486.894:0): avc:  denied
{ dac_override } for  pid=26387 exe=/usr/sbin/ntpd capability=1
scontext=root:system_r:ntpd_t tcontext=root:system_r:ntpd_t
tclass=capability

This is an updated FC3 system.
