It seems like the next obvious step is try running ntpd with a
modified command line from a shell.  First make a note of the currrent
ntpd command line from "ps ax" or similar.  Then stop the daemon ntpd
and invoke it from a shell adding -dd to the options, something like:

sudo /path/to/ntpd -dd ... | tee ntpdtrace.log

or:

su
/path/to/ntpd -dd ... | tee ntpdtrace.log

among the debug trace spew you should see the timecodes received from
the GPS and potentiallly more hints at what's going wrong.

Good luck,
Dave Hart
