Why does it need to be rewritten? Is it currently not ready for prime 
time? I was
working on a man page for sntp in prep with the Solaris integration and 
found
that the docs are very much out of sync with the code and despite the 
fact that
it uses libopts, most of the ops specified don't seem to work.

In any case, should I just drop it from the Solaris distribution for now?
