[ntp:questions] Support for "tickless" systems

In bug 2314, I reported that the jitter was always reported as 0 soon 
after NTP had started, and this was traced to the Linux in use on the 
Raspberry Pi being tickless.  Recompiling the kernel without the 
tickless option was a work-round, but is it possible to get jitter 
values with a tickless system?

I would like to re-open this bug if NTP can be made to report jitter 
correctly on a tickless Linux.
