Thanks, Michael and Hal.  I restarted the server and found the error lines:

Feb  7 14:42:43 raspberrypi ntpd[30522]: set_freq: ntp_loopfilter.c line 
976: invalid struct timex "constant" element value: 0
Feb  7 14:42:46 raspberrypi ntpd[30522]: refclock_params: time_pps_kcbind: 
Operation not supported

and my version of Linux:

pi at raspberrypi ~/ntp $ uname -a
Linux raspberrypi 3.18.5-v7+ #746 SMP PREEMPT Mon Feb 2 14:05:32 GMT 2015 
armv7l GNU/Linux


Here's the full log.  It seems like there is a short retention period of the 
log entries on the RPi.
