I have learned a bit in the past time period.

First, adding a 2nd DNS server, in this case my ISP's, got around this timing problem, becuase the 'right fix' is not available yet.

The answer is to stop using old ntpd and use modern chronyd. But more than that, ver 2.1.1 which is available in Fedora 22, but not (yet) in Centos 7 (perhaps 7.2). You start chrony with the -s option; this tells it you have a bad, or no rtc, and to regularly save the time to a file which is read when chrony starts up. I have tested this out on F22 and it works as advertised.

There is also systemd-timesync, but Fedora/redhat went the chrony route, and I got more help figuring it out.

On to the next fun challenge.

I will be looking more into this.  Obvious when you get ones nose
dragged into time wrong on boot.  This is actually a broader problem on
arm SoC booting.  Your logs all have the wrong time for the boot
messages until there is a network to get time.  I have some ideas for a
process that will set time a boot to the time of the last poweroff.  at
least that is 'close enough' for starters.
I believe that's the solution Apple adopted for the AppleTV, which has
no rtc and couldn't use a certificate to connect to a wireless network
because the certificate wasn't valid in 1970.
