yes it seems that's the difference, from the tzcode makefile:
# If you always want time values interpreted as "seconds since the epoch
# (not counting leap seconds)", use
# REDO= posix_only
# below. If you always want right time values interpreted as "seconds since
# the epoch" (counting leap seconds)", use
# REDO= right_only
# below. If you want both sets of data available, with leap seconds not
# counted normally, use
# REDO= posix_right
# below. If you want both sets of data available, with leap seconds counted
# normally, use
# REDO= right_posix
# below.
# POSIX mandates that leap seconds not be counted; for compatibility with it,
# use either "posix_only" or "posix_right".
REDO= posix_right
