I'd like to run ntpd on this UML system.
Don't. Run ntpd only on the bare hardware itself. The NTP
protocol was designed with the basic concept that there would only
ever be one and only one process anywhere on the system that was
mucking about with the clock, and that it is that process.
Run ntpd on the bare hardware, make sure it's got a good
configuration, and then make use of that from all your UML clients.
But make no attempt to run ntpd anywhere under any UML installation.
