Looks like that's not very easy with the current implementation, see the 
code in graphics:::hist.POSIXt
Either write your own function along the code mentioned above (and 
consider to contribute your improvements, or use the following (more or 
less ugly) workaround:

   hist(.leap.seconds, "years", col='gray', freq=TRUE, axes=FALSE)
   hist(.leap.seconds, "years", freq=TRUE, add=TRUE)
