Out of control Java processes when dealing with a leap second?

I saw the same across all of our Ubuntu servers. Some running Tomcat others running SmartFox Server (a java based game server). A reboot + app restart fixed it.

I experienced no problem today. Is this Java-specific?

Leap second + Java + Linux fix (without reboot): /etc/init.d/ntp stop; date; date `date +"%m%d%H%M%C%y.%S"`; date; -- then restart java

Works wonders for me. Thanks!
