No, I think the usual notation for a leap-second is '23:59:60'.
We do allow 60 in the seconds field for this purpose.
I suppose there's another possible approach, which is to special-case
the output of this value to look like '23:59:60' instead of '24:00:00'.
Then it could be reloaded. On the whole though, most people who came
across that behavior would probably think it's a bug...
