Please also see scripts/ntp-wait.

I have long documented that one should start ntpd as early as possible
in the boot sequence, then as late as possible in the boot sequence run
ntp-wait followed by time-critical applications.

The intent is to allow the system to do as much as possible in between
those to "points", as there are a lot of folks out there who Really Care
about getting a machine up and running ASAP.
