I pushed the NTP work to my github repository:

https://github.com/sebhub/rtems-libbsd/tree/6-freebsd-12-ntpd

Right now it doesn't work. The test program ntp01.exe crashes after some 
time. I don't have time to look into this in the next weeks. I think we 
have to revert some changes done for the NFS support. For example, I 
don't know why the system call support for kqueue and the sockets moved 
to a separate file and was changed to use the FreeBSD file descriptors.
