Adding to Lorne's comment, I have always avoided using the exact TOH as
an event time on time-change night and have never had any trouble in 5
years of running Rivendell.  Also, just adding a report that an event
for 03:00:13 last night, executed perfectly.

But if you are meeting the network straight up, that might pose a
problem.  Perhaps a possible couple second upcut twice a year in the
dead of night is acceptable?
