There is no such option in ntpd version 4.2.0.   I'm fairly sure that
it isn't in any later version.  The NTP developers generally consider
the use of this feature (from the command line "-x") as undesirable.
I don't believe it existed in version 3 either, but I don't have such
old source close to hand.

As far as I know, even the general syntax KEYWORD yes is not used for
any option.

Firstly, identify the exact version of the software.  There are also
Windows ports of the Unix strings utility, that you can use to see if
the string slewalways appears anywhere in the binary.
