If you modified ntpd to call posix2time() and time2posix() in the right places when computing offsets, and disabled ntp's leap-second handling, your system would actually show the correct time around leap seconds rather than the wrong time required by POSIX. Since nobody does this, many vendors do not ship the leap-second cognizant data files. We disabled this in FreeBSD more than a decade ago. -GAWollman -- Garrett A.
