I put the line "ACCEPT fw net udp 123" in my shorewall rules and it looks like it's working now. I somehow imagined that I didn't need to put specific rules in to allow outgoing traffic - only incoming. When I've had problems with Leaf, I've promised I'd get up to speed with Shorewall, iptables etc., but since it's been working fine I've got lazy. Time to dust off the FMs and read them!
