I tried to avoid that because it would place ntpd outside the normal
patch process. Therefore I googled before I posted and checked if I
could find known problems with Sun's xntpd. I didn't found any
mentioning of an oscillation problem.
It was just mentioned that Solaris 8 always slews the clock and "disable
pll" was recommended. (That did not help, as mentioned.) As far as I
understand, the behaviour at my system might be due to a too large
frequency error. Would the update to a current ntp version really help
in that case?

Nope. If it is too large, it is too large, and there is no way
for NTP to deal with that, old or new.
