--- Comment #4 from Cy Schubert <cy at FreeBSD.org> ---
The three locations the file can be fetched from are ftp://time.nist.gov/pub/,
ftp://tycho.usno.navy.mil/pub/ntp/ and 
https://www.ietf.org/timezones/data/leap-seconds.list.

Comparing the copy from ftp://tycho.usno.navy.mil/pub/ntp/ with the one from
https://www.ietf.org/timezones/data/leap-seconds.list, not much difference
exists.

I do not know where to fetch the IERS version of the file from. Having said
that apparently the IERS version is copyrighted:
https://mm.icann.org/pipermail/tz/2016-February/023171.html. I haven't been
able to confirm this.
