Indeed it looks as if ntpdate is going away, replaced by
enhancements to ntpd. 

Still, I think the timekeeping errors are caused by a somewhat
unconventional network setup on the machine having problems.
The rest of the hosts in my "data center" use ntpdate and 
have no trouble keeping their clocks right, but those hosts
all have wired ethernet. The host with the wrong clock setting
uses an ethernet-to-wifi adapter. Can't be sure until more 
testing is done. And, I might be wrong again.....

Thanks for writing,
