I'm not surprised. Openntpd is designed to be a much more lightweight
version than bog-standard ntpd. Primarily to not have to haul around
refclock support to each and every installation.

If it's any relief though, ntpq *will* work on all stratum1 servers,
as only vanilla ntpd has refclock support.
