I don't consider the source files to be part of normal configuration.
They are supposed to be dynamic. chronyd -p prints the sourcedir
directive itself, which should give the user a hint that there can be
other servers.
The source files are normally parsed later, when chronyd already made
modifications to the filesystem and clock, so this would require some
hacking.
