No, they are defined. You can find them in Das Buch and I believe the
latest version of the NTP protocol in draft for the IETF WG.

They have not been implemented, have they? They are not yet part of a
standard are they?
Wherever someone may have speculated about them, I think that, until
they become part of an adopted standard and/or are implemented, it is
fair to call them a figment of someone's imagination!
I believe that we run out of bits in about thirty years. It's clear
that we will need more. The need for a 32-bit timestamp is less than clear!
