	I had no trouble making ntp on a 9000/300.  Occasionally I
	use it to resynchronize my clock to WWVB time within a modest
	number of milliseconds.  The daemon (timed) didn't compile,
	I believe because of BSDisms.

	Are there others who'd like to use ntp & timed on HP's?
	If enough popular demand exists I can probably justify
	using some of my own time to finish the port.
