Note: adjtime(2) does not adjust the rate of the clock, but only slews
the current value. The rate adjustment refers to the use of adjfreq(2)
(under OpenBSD) or adjtimex(2) (under Linux), which was only very
recently added to the package.

So, the above description is:

1. Correct for Ubuntu 10.10 / openntpd 3.9p1+debian-5 or earlier, which does 
not adjust the rate.
2. Incorrect for Ubuntu 11.04 / openntpd 3.9p1+debian-8 or later, which 
incorporates the adjtimex patch to adjust the rate.

(Time adjustment is slow or fails in the face of clock drift)
