Accepting that a more robust and standard mechanism such as that in NTPQ is
desirable, I upgraded my FreeBSD system to 4.2.7p255, and find that with the
"ntpq -c kern" command all the units for the reported variables are missing:

C:\>ntpq -c kern pixie
associd=0 status=041d leap_none, sync_uhf_radio, 1 event, kern,
pll offset:            -0.00383
pll frequency:         27.7402
maximum error:         0.005
estimated error:       3e-06
kernel status:         pll ppsfreq ppstime ppssignal nano
pll time constant:     4
precision:             1e-06
frequency tolerance:   495.911
pps frequency:         27.7402
pps stability:         0.0209351
pps jitter:            0.003
calibration interval   256
calibration cycles:    285
jitter exceeded:       67
stability exceeded:    0
calibration errors:    5

whereas using NTPDC the units were reported.  Please add meaningful unit
descriptions to the NTPQ output. Perhaps this should be a fresh bug report?
