[Bug 538840] [NEW] ntpd should update time faster during boot

[Daniel Hahler]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ntp

My hardware clock is currently off during boot always (probably because
of empty CMOS battery) and ntp takes some minutes before it synchronizes
the clock.

ntp should synchronize/fix the clock right after it has been started (as
fast as possible).

E.g. boot time is 03:39:01, ntpd start at 03:39:22 and time gets fixed
after 03:42:53 - that's more than 3 minutes after ntpd has started.

Ubuntu Lucid, ntp 1:4.2.4p8+dfsg-1ubuntu1
