The way I read "man ntpd" (on Debian wheezy), we could (should?) replace ntpdate by
"ntpd -q"; and if we are going to run ntpd then ntpdate is unnecessary anyway.
If we have (or are going to have) ntpd, then we should simply skip /etc/network/if-up.d/ntpdate;
seeing how that depends on NTPSERVERS in /etc/ntp.conf or somesuch, I do not see that
/etc/network/if-up.d/ntpdate is ever any use.
