Hi John,

First, my apologies for calling it a "hack." I just went back and looked at the
commit history and this is first-class stuff... and you explained it very well
(including the NTP interaction) in the commit message. I'm pretty sure I
read this before, but I reckon most of it went over my head and I garbled it.

Yes, exactly.
