Renewing of the transport on announce/sync timeout is needed in the
client-only mode to avoid getting stuck with a broken multicast socket
when the link goes down.
This shouldn't be necessary with the raw transport. Closing and binding
of raw sockets can apparently be so slow that it triggers a false
positive in the clock check.
