Since it is a string, maybe send something nicer? Instead of:
*SHM(1) .PPS. 0 l 2 8 377 0.0000 -0.0050 0.0015
-clepsydra.labs. .GPS. 1 u 30 64 377 38.3435 3.9124 6.8764
How about:
*SHM(1) .PPS. 0 l 2 8 377 0.000u -5.000u 1.500u
-clepsydra.labs. .GPS. 1 u 30 64 377 38.343m 3.912m 6.876m
That might mess up older clients, maybe some sort of mode bit sent to
the server? Or maybe do the fancy formatting in ntpq?
OTOH, I know some people hate it when units jump like that...
