We haven't decided what to do.

I think my preference is to allow '24:00:00' (but not anything larger)
as a valid input value of the time datatypes.  This for two reasons:
        * existing dump files may contain such values
        * it's consistent with allowing, eg, '12:13:60', which we
          allow even though it's certainly not a valid leap second.

The alternative is to try to catch all places where 23:59:59.something
could get rounded up to 24:00:00, but that looks messy, and it would
introduce a gotcha into calculations on time values.

                        regards, tom lane
