Good to see there is a maintainer for ptpd now and a future for improvements
and features.  At my company we have a large ptpd installment on our systems
for very precise timing in our production server (no ntp clients).  The new
Intel 82576 add-in for hardware timestamping looks promising but
unfortunately I can't seem to keep the time stable using the "linux_hw"
option, time goes backwards/forwards very aggresively.  So a little
clarification around whether I am using it correctly would be good.  Using
the default mode works fine as this is what I am using on 100s of servers
without a problem.
CPPFLAGS="-DPTPD_DBGV -DHAVE_LINUX_NET_TSTAMP_H
-I/root/linux-2.6.30.4/include"

Here are the flags I am using at compilation time.

Let me know if you need anything else.
