The HTML should be installed in to /usr/local/share/doc/ntp I think
(possible /usr/local/share/doc/ntp-4.0.97 if it's likely that more than
one version will ever be installed at the same time).
Man pages for each of the commands just pointing to the HTML documentation
would be very useful, I think, but not essential.
