- Alan,
-
- I am not sure that the SLEWALWAYS code has ever been tested. (I
- certainly didn't do so when I was hacking xntp to version 3.) On the
- other hand, it does seem like it ``ought to'' work --- it's not that
- complicated.
-
- It does seem that you need something like SLEWALWAYS, or perhaps a
- variant that uses gettimeofday to get to the nearest second and leaves
- the residue in sys_offset. Since it is you who needs the feature, it
- is probably up to you to get it to work.
