I'm glad you mentioned this. Mills's leapsecond page at https://www.eecis.udel.edu/~mills/leap.html describes this as if it's the way it's done in Unix kernels. Do you know which of them actually use it? (Linux seems not to, as you pointed out.) _______________________________________________ LEAPSECS mailing list LEAPSECS@leapsecond.com https://pairlist6.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/leapsecs
