Many people are. We jus tnot sure which ones. :-)

Yes.

Wrong question, it does not matter even if it did. step_systime()
takes the amount to step as a double. Any pivot info is long
gone. step_systime() just adds step to the current sys clock time
and then sets that time. But in a very long and obfuscated way.

Unrelated to this issue. That happens in ntpd/ntp_loopfilter.c
So a question for another thread. Let's not continue to get lost
bouncing around.
