Has anybody looked into making ntpd get its server(s) via DHCP directly
rather than having something external rewrite ntp.conf?
I found a gentoo wiki/HOWTO page on this area.

It looks like dhcpcd (DHCP client daemon) is what does the rewriting, or did
it on older systems. Newer systems (may?) use NetworkManager and/or D-BUS.
I don't know anything about them. (yet?)
