Yes I read it, and noticed that ifdef, also I noticed that the leapseconds was omitted for last 12 month during MFV for unknown for me reasons. Therefore is you #define LEAPSECONDS you'll not get the next one. And yes, the update should be on src/share/zoneinfo/leapseconds and not the .list file (my mistake), but as I said it haven't been updated during last MFV therefore there is nothing to be done for EN in this stage.
