So, that's not, what I think... I encountered the same problem, but on the
"normal" kernels 2.6.8/9/10. The solve was to 'modprobe capabilities' or
'modprobe realtime'. But if ntpd runs in the "main" context, I think, it is not
the same case. Maybe, you've to look around capabilities(7) to get appropriate
CAP_* in the context?
