[Bug classpath/25651] New: GregorianCalendar should handle leap seconds

[green at redhat dot com]

GregorianCalendar.nonLeniencyCheck() ensures that the seconds field is between
0 and 59 (inclusive).  However, this upper limit may hit 60 when we insert leap
seconds (as we did three days ago).  glibc says that tm.tm_sec can contain a
value of 60.  Perhaps we should change the 59 limit to 60.

Here's a nice article on leap seconds: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leap_second
