There was some semantical fix in sys/kern/uipc_usrreq.c for unix
sockets that might have triggered it.  I'm sure I had used ntpctl with
"older" pledge.

The diff looks OK, with the drawback that the ntp process now needs
"all of unix" for the accept() - but the unix socket is pre-opened
before its pledge/chroot.
