Unless admins make sure their NTP servers don't have the leap warning bit 
still set, quite some servers will insert another leap second at the end of 
*this* month, regardless of the bulletin from IERS. ;-)

You can check this if you type:

  ntpq -c "rv 0 leap"

If this prints "leap=00" then everything is fine, but if it prints "leap=01" 
then the leap bit is "stuck" inside ntpd and another leap second will be 
inserted on this machine and eventually on its clients.
