I have not seen this link here so am adding it for reference. Those on 
the manafacturers mailing lists will already have it.
Symmetricom have tested past and present products for leap second 
compliance. Check yours out to see what to expect at:

There appear to be two sequences reported for the different receivers.


365:23:59:58
365:23:59:59
365:23:59:59
001:00:00:00
001:00:00:01

365:23:59:58
365:23:59:59
365:23:59:60    <=====  this is I believe, the norm
001:00:00:00
001:00:00:01

   Where appropriate, the tests also indicate if leap warning and leap 
bits are correctly set in the NTP packets.

Many thanks to Symmetricom for this proactive initiative .
