Without flag3 it appears that ntpd does the heavy lifting but is unable to

Being unable to use the PPS unless either a prefer peer is set or
another knob is adjusted (see what I quoted earlier) is operating by
design. The change in operation with flag3 1 seems likely to me to be
an ntpd bug, which is why I'd like to see a bug report filed. Unless
I'm missing some design intention, it seems to me PPS should not
become reachable with no prefer peer regardless of flag3.
On NetBSD-5, i386, I had the PPS marked as falseticker as
from March 2, 2012 when I updated from 4.2.6p3 to 4.2.6p5.
When I went back to 4.2.6p3 the 'o' was back. I hadn't spare
time to investigate and changed config to use only type 20
nmea driver with 4.2.6p5.
