BSD systems don't seem to have the /var/lib directory.

I think the examples are ok for local installations, no need to make
things complicated. Packagers follow rules of their distribution which
may be the FHS.

I will run chrony on a few systems over the weekend but so far I
haven't seen any bugs. I'll let you know my results next Tuesday.

One minor bug report-- the chown of the rtc and drift files leaves hundreds of
messages in syslog
Jan 24 04:03:13 info chronyd[4328]: Could not change ownsership of drift file
/var/lib/chrony/chrony.drift.tmp
(I now have 13000 lines like this in my syslog of the last 5 days.)
This is with chronyd running as root, and what seems to be happening is that
the old and new files already have identical ownership and chown is
objecting to a "change" which is no change at all. 
I think we need to check if the ownership needs changing and to only change it

if it needs changing. Also, if the system is running as chrony rather than as
root, to only try changing the group.
