The options for the 'nts' and 'server' statements in the config file
will be different.  Trying to merge them will confuse everyone.

Right now, server looks like this:

server address [key key] [burst] [iburst] [version version]
       [minpoll minpoll] [maxpoll maxpoll]

nts looks like this (not well decided or documented yet):

nts address [[ask address]|[require address]] [noval]] [burst] [iburst]
       [prefer] [minpoll minpoll] [maxpoll maxpoll]

I suspect some more options will be needed for the nts.
