--- Comment #2 from Ian Lepore <ian at FreeBSD.org> ---
In my experience, the main reason for ntpd silently quitting is that the clock
is far off and it refuses to step the clock that much.  That can be fixed by
setting ntpd_sync_on_start=YES in your rc.conf.

That truss output only shows ntpd startup until the point where it forked off
the daemon.  To get useful truss output for ntpd, you need to add the -n
(no-fork) flag on the ntpd command line.
