Well, from what info I gathered about PTP so far I'm a bit confused. First I've
heard about patent concerns regarding PTP: 

* https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=556611#c9
* http://standards.ieee.org/about/sasb/patcom/pat1390.html (search for 1588 )

There was another review of the PTPd here:

* https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=658796

Also I don't fully get the motivation for packaging this fork of the original
PTPd daemon. There are some other forms as well at github:

* https://github.com/richardcochran/ptpd-phc (this one)
* https://github.com/pohly/ptpd (another one fork with hardware timestamps)
* https://github.com/audioscience/ptpd2
* https://github.com/astraw/ptpd
