Yes! With a vanilla 2.6.10, the noapic solve the problem and ntpd is happy.

More fun now: it look like the BIOS actually used on this mainboard is 
not designed for it, but for an other board!!!

The board is exactly this one "K7N2 Delta-L":
http://www.msi.com.tw/program/support/download/dld/spt_dld_detail.php?UID=436&kind=1
And according to MSI it must use a BIOS version 5.9. But when I enter 
into the BIOS setup the version info say "W6570MS V7.4 081203".

Here is the BIOS version history: 
http://www.msi.com.tw/program/support/bios/bos/spt_bos_detail.php?UID=436&kind=1
The version 7.4 dated 2003-8-12 has a special note:

1. Only for K7N2 Delta-ILSR
2. This BIOS cannot be used on K7N2 Delta-L

Crasy. I use this board without any issue since around two years and 
only found the first problem when upgrading to the kernel 2.6.14!


At least the situation is more clear now.
