I'm unsure about this.  On its face, it sounds like a good idea.  But I don't 
know what sort of dependencies this introduces into running "/etc/init.d/ntp 
status" (network, resolver, access control, firewall?).  It's not 
like "ntpq -c peers" is so hard to type, is it?

Let's see if others have an opinion.
