When I try to start ntpd it exits right away, leaving behind only the
pid file and a few log messages.

I ran an strace and it seg faulted...
strace -f -t /usr/sbin/ntpd -d -n -u ntp:ntp -p /var/run/ntpd.pid
...
08:26:48 connect(9, {sa_family=AF_FILE, path="/var/run/nscd/socket"},
110) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
08:26:48 close(9)                       = 0
08:26:48 --- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) @ 0 (0) ---
08:26:48 +++ killed by SIGSEGV +++

Why "nscd/socket"?
