Isn't the real problem caused by the use of the local clock driver.
Distributors like including this and users don't understand that ntpd
will maintain frequency even without any servers, so a lot of people
include them without really understanding them.

The other problem is that many people think that ntpd is designed to
negotiate a consensus time under such circumstances, when except possibly
for the new isolated networks option, it isn't and one should use timed,
or similar, instead.
