The disman Scheduling MIB (RFC 3231) has future timestamps. They
are defined as dates / times, with provision for how discontinuities
in civil time (whether due to "summer time", time zone changes, or leap
seconds) are to be handled.  This definition makes it unlikely that
a sane developer would internally represent them as computed
intervals.  Leap second handling is a big non-issue in SNMP-land,
as far as I know.
