I don't think this is a duplicate of bug #1575572
I am seeing this problem on an Ubuntu 16.04 machine that has the update "This 
bug was fixed in the package init-system-helpers - 1.29ubuntu2" mentioned as 
being a fix for that bug but ntpd is still broken on booting. I am seeing this:

Jul 12 14:14:43 metop ntpd[1933]: unable to bind to wildcard address :: - 
another process may be running - EXITING
Jul 12 14:14:50 metop ntpdate[1758]: step time server 134.36.22.27 offset 
0.264278 sec

So basically the systemd dependency arrangement is broken: ntpdate is
slow now (as for comment #16 above) and not exiting before ntpd is
started, it then it fails due to ntpdate still running.

A later manual start of ntpd works fine, but that is not an acceptable
situation for machines that are unattended and/or used by people that
don't have administrative rights (or knowledge) to manually start ntpd
later.
