You have some choices. You could move the things that depend on
ntpd out of ntp_proto.c. But as you noted that may not work.
Or you could dig in harder and re-structure the code. That could take
all year.
The best option may be to put stub functions in your test code that
satisfy the linker that the needed functions from ntpd are available.
