I spoke too soon :-(

Things do work better, but the clock is still slow:

[weerd@vm1] $ rdate -npv ${N}; uptime
Fri May 12 16:50:14 CEST 2017
rdate: adjust local clock by 124.798956 seconds
 4:48PM  up 16 mins, 1 user, load averages: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00

So, in 16 minutes, the clock is 2 minutes behind.  So, a lot better,
but still falling behind.

[weerd@vm1] $ rdate -npv ${N}; time sleep 600; rdate -npv ${N} 
Fri May 12 16:51:47 CEST 2017
rdate: adjust local clock by 135.359214 seconds
   10m03.01s real     0m00.00s user     0m00.00s system
Fri May 12 17:03:08 CEST 2017
rdate: adjust local clock by 213.572802 seconds

Which turns out to be almost 8 seconds per minute.
