Yes, that was poorly worded - I meant "shouldn't NTP note the leap-second 
flags from the other Internet upstream servers, and base its whole second 
values on those sources during a leap-second update, using just the PPS 
part of the GPS signal?"  The would appear to apply to any GPS source 
which is PPS + NMEA....
