This servo writes to a shared memory segment instead of adjusting the
clock. If there is another phc2sys instance or another program writing
to that segment for synchronization purposes, this "free-running"
instance will break it.

A new servo would need to be added. The only advantage over the
original approach I see is the few extra conditions that would be
saved in the phc2sys code.
