The NTP daemon will not assert leap=00 against any bogus source wrongly saying leap=01 during June 2006. The authority of the soon updated NIST leapseconds file, expiring only later on 29 December 2006, thus valid, and showing no leap event on 30 June 2006, could perhaps be used to force correct leap=00. Effectively overruling the less sure leap bits of other sources.
