One of the problems with leap-seconds is that they aren't predictable and the
software in embedded gear doesn't get updated. That also means the time zone
data doesn't get updated.

What sort of embedded gear uses time but not time zones? Or are people
willing to gamble that Congress won't mess with DST anytime soon?
