The leap smearing in NTPsec is:
1) Broken.
2) Not Google compatible. It occurs in the interval _before_ the leap
second, not _centered on_ the leap second as Google has proposed.

#1 is specific to NTPsec. I submitted a Merge Request to fix this plus
some whitespace inconsistencies I found while debugging:
https://gitlab.com/NTPsec/ntpsec/merge_requests/671

#2 is inherited from NTP Classic, so I filed bugs on both:
https://gitlab.com/NTPsec/ntpsec/issues/475
http://bugs.ntp.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3481

Given that leap smearing seems to be converging on Google's approach,
I'm very hesitant to enable this feature when it is incompatible.
