In my time zone, the leap second occurred at 17:59:60.  So, I wonder
about the z/OS STIMER macro:

If, at 17:59:59 I had issued STIMER WAIT,LT=[18:000:01]
    would the wait have expired in 3 seconds?

If, at 17:59:59 I had issued STIMER WAIT,BINTVL=[3 seconds]
    would the wait have expired at 18:00:01?

Unless the answer to both questions is "Yes," there's a bug.
