This should solve your problem:

int
main(int argc, char** argv)
{
   putenv("NTPD=--no-load-opts");
   optionProcess(...);

What will happen is that this environment variable will suppress all
loading of .rc files.  If you did want a system supported config file,
then you could extend it thus:

   putenv("NTPD=--no-load-opts --load-opts=" CONFIGURED_CONFIG_FILE);

If you want to suppress environment variable loading also,
you'd need to strip them out.  Without ``envrionrc'' set, this
mechanism won't work and I'd need to think some more.
