If you know of any such thing I suggest you bring it up on devel at ntpsec.org.
Several of the authors of the upcoming NTS spec hang out there.

If you can document anything specific the NTPsec team would like to get
it handled in their code and documentation.  Currently they are turning
around fixes in days for most issues.

They have already changed a bit of their implementation of the RFC for
security reasons and would do so for any new issues.  Things like
symetric mode are now automagically downgraded to a more secure client
server mode.
