Maybe we should stop wrenching the poor system time back and forth. We no longer add or subtract daylight savings time (or timezones) to the kernel time, why do we do it with leapseconds? We should really move the leapseconds correction into the display routines like DST and timezones already are. I believe the Olson time code already has ifdefs for doing this. I wonder why the system's internal time isn't run that way. -wolfgang -- g+: https://plus.google.com/114566345864337108516/about
