Thank you for your bug report. If you find anything else please continue to report it. However you have forgotten about leap seconds. It is perfectly valid for seconds to be 60 seconds. This is not a bug in the documentation. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leap_second Therefore I am marking the bug as closed. Thanks anyway!
