I see in sysconfig/ntpd the option g is set which means huge offset is one time ignored. But my understanding of ntpd is, it slows or accelerated kernel clock but does not make huge jumps...
With the options you mentioned, NTPd will make a big jump once at startup.
If the clock is wrong by (if I remember correctly) about 30 mins it will take so long to drift back to being correct that NTPd gives up.
