Slightly off-topic, but you should set

echo xen > \
/sys/devices/system/clocksource/clocksource0/current_clocksource

as clocksource for your Xen >= 4.1 domU.
From now on, you shouldn't need ntpd's running inside your domU.
Just sync your dom0.

btw. Take a look
in /sys/devices/system/clocksource/clocksource0/available_clocksource to
see all available sources. 
cheers,
