41  * Electric mode is defined as the operation mode where the system clock
42  * automagically manages the leap second, so we don't have to care about
43  * stepping the clock. (This should be the case with most systems,
44  * including the current implementation of the Win32 timekeeping.)
45  *
46  * The consequence of electric mode is that we do not 'see' the leap
47  * second, and no client actions are needed when crossing the leap era
48  * boundary.  In manual (aka non-electric) mode the clock will simply
49  * step forward untill *we* (that is, this module) tells the client app
50  * to step at the right time. This needs a slightly different type of
51  * processing, so switching between those two modes should not be done
52  * too close to a leap second. The transition might be lost in that
53  * case. (The limit is actual 2 sec before transition.)
54  *
55  * OTOH, this is a system characteristic, so it's expected to be set
56  * properly somewhere after system start and retain the value.
57  *
58  * Simply querying the state or setting it to the same value as before
59  * does not have any unwanted side effects.  You can query by giving a
60  * negative value for the switch.
