> I mean, technically speaking (unless there's an RFC, ISO, or ANSI that I'm unfamiliar with), having the same time twice is also "non-standard." The most correct course of action would be to have an 11:59:60, as per the actual leap-second standard.

I believe GP is incorrect (or rather, the overall point that most NTP servers followed the standard and Google's didn't is correct) and most NTP servers did have 11:59:60 as per the standard.

I stand 100% corrected.
