The code for loopstats and similar works that way.  ntpd.log doesn't.

If you don't have a CMOS clock (or it is wrong, for example because the 
battery is dead) that writes  to a file with the date in the name when the 
date is wrong.

There are two problems with that.  First it trashes an old file which gets 
ugly.  If you are using rsync to archive log files, it will recreate old 
deleted files, discarding the real data.  It also makes it hard to find the 
actual logged data.
