If you give it STCK values from various years listed in chapter 4 of Principles of Operation, the returned time for many of them is off by approximately (not exactly) the number of leap seconds that were not taken into account. Also, if you give it the value 7d91048bca000000 for 1/1/1970 (not in the manual) it says it is before Jan 1 1970. That's not a leap seconds problem, but it is incorrect.
