It has changed. initstepslew used to be a separate NTP client inside
chrony, which used its own socket configured with the acquisitionport
directive. The port directive configured the main NTP socket which was
used for both server and client communication. You couldn't change the
client port without changing also the server port.
The initstepslew NTP implementation was removed and it uses the main
NTP code now. It has separate client and server sockets, configured
with acquisitionport and port directives respectively.
