The only v6 ones that are sure to have had the problem are based on tilera chips and one of two NTP packages available. *shrugs*

Don't know why a 3.3.5 kernel would have deadlocked; don't think there 
are any known issues that would cause that, unless there are Mikrotik 
specific patches that caused the problem. 

I believe the bug from the 2008 leap second was present in kernels in 
2.4 up through 2.6.26 (although Red Hat at least patched it in their 
older version long-term support kernels).
