My understanding is that the bug says that '--force-ntpd' option should 
not be shown when ipa-client-install is run during replica installation.

During replica installation, the ipa-client-install script is run with 
the '--unattended' flag in the 'ensure_enrolled()' function. Being a 
separate script, there's not many options on how to pass the information 
not to show the message to ipa-client-install. Using the already used 
flag to get rid of the message seemed easiest to me. Introducing a new 
'hidden' flag (like '--from-replica'), on the other hand, seems a bit harsh.
