Then ntpdate is blocking the ntp port, and ntpd has to wait for it.  The new 
package version does it properly; older versions were somewhat broken in this 
respect.  You could perhaps follow along and verify this if you put set -x 
in /etc/network/if-up.d/nptdate.  But really the best solution is to 
uninstall ntpdate, because it is useless in this setup.
