It was Linux's fault, not MySQL:

this was *not* the 100% CPU bug i spoke about

It also affected Java.

So don't blame MySQL for being at the mercy of the OS.

when i have mail, web, file, dhcp, dns and what not servers all running fine at the mercy of the same OS i blame the one software running in circles

Wasn't that the result of a kernel bug?

well, when i have 30 servers running a recent kernel and every service
except mysqld which starts to consume 100% CPU is running fine guess
where the problem was - and frankly the only reason why the whole
infrastructure did not went down was the availibility of 40 GHz so
that public services still appeared to run fine, mysqld also responded
"normal" at that time

I'm writing to inquire if I should prepare any of our MariaDB/Galera
users for the upcoming leap second. According to
http://www.timeanddate.com/time/leapseconds.html the next leap second
will be added on June 30, 2015 at 23:59:60 UTC.

I searched a bit for "leap second mariadb" but didn't find anything
recent.

Most of our users are on MariaDB 10.0.13 and Galera 25.2.9 or
subsequent.

Have anyone tested both MariaDB and Galera to ensure that there are
versions which are resilient to the introduction of a leap second? If
so, is there documentation of versions which are known vulnerable to or
proof against it?
