That MR conflated at least two changes that shouldb have been made
separately. And I don't see any rationale for the questionable part,
which is changing the configuration default.

Thios is partly my fault.  U've been concentrating pretty hard on the
GCC conversionm for months and havem't exercised the oversight I
should have.  Well, that epic is over; I'm back.

OK, I reached the relevant devs on #ntpsec.  Will pursue there.
