I think we are heading the wrong way on this.  It is not an Open
Firmware problem and it is not a Mac problem.  I have seen this before
with NTP Classic.  I have verified before that Chronyd does not have the
same issue.

There was a time I used to buy and provision  10 identical servers at a
time. Of the 10, one often had this problem.  The fix was chrony.

Sometimes the clock needs to be pulled more than ntpd expects and ntpd
gives up just before it succeeds.

I think this is clearly an ntpd bug.
