One thing to remember about tools like this is that s6 is very precise with
it's implemenation of TAI64N - it uses leap seconds.

I use lnav [1] for a similar concept and it parses TAI64N but it does not
deal with leap seconds so my timestamps were off by like 20 seconds (or
something similar). I had to modify the code to handle the leap seconds.

So just make sure you check that the timestamps are what you expect them to
be with non s6 tools.
