According to RFC 2030 the server is not responding correctly:
"In unicast and anycast modes, the VN and Poll fields of the request are copied 
intact to the reply."

I can't find what the client is supposed to do on receiving poll 0, but mine 
(ntpd 4.2.0) displays
poll 4 and keeps to using poll 10 as configured.

Your restrict options aren't correct if you're querying a server every second 
(ntp behaves really
weird when you restrict it from accepting the reply), which will show up as 
RSTR as the refid.

The ntpd.conf in your email and the list of peers output don't seem match since 
you're restricting
everything to not accept the replies - when I test using it it'll do what you 
show in your tcpdump
output but show RSTR as the refid.
