Interesting. I don't see any leap-pending from a Z3801A. (or a KS-24361) There is another interesting worm in this can... Various software in the chain from Paris to your PC may filter the leap-pending info. There was at least one bug in ntpd where it told the kernel to leap-tonight several months early. The way it's supposed to work is that ntpd tells the kernel leap-tonight, and the kernel will add/delete a leap second at midnight. That gives the ntp servers a whole day to propagate the leap-pending info to lower stratum servers and another day to turn it off by the next midnight. The T2 string from HP GPSDOs includes a slot which is +, -, or 0 for insert, delete, or none. You can ask it when the leap is scheduled, but the code didn't do that. It just assumed the leap was scheduled for the end of the current month. The fix was to add a filter to only pay attention to that flag in June and December. -- These are my opinions. I hate spam.
