I believe that this bug should not be marked as 'Wishlist" because using
single NTP server is entirely unacceptable.

1) At least three NTP servers must be configured in ntp.conf to choose best of 
them and detect single outlayer
2) Routing problems are possible
3) Server failures are even more possible

Two possible solutions of the problem:

1) Use pool.ntp.org by default. 
2) Provide our own pool of NTP servers.

#1 takes much less effort. Of course, fine tuning of this (i.e. using
country-specific pools) can be added to Wishlist.
