Uhm, Karl, please try to calm down, OK ?
I didn't talk about having a driftfile, I talked about using the kernel
PLL: ("Remember to get the kernel code involved.")
With xntpd the kernel-pll is very optional, in fact only the source tells
you that the magic secret second field in your driftfile controls if
the kernel-PLL should be used or not.
Anyway, ntpd4 is in CURRENT...
