This may be pertinent, from the help:

Note: If the step size is not an integer then the last element may not be equal to the FINAL time. In this case, TIMEGEN will return enough elements such that the last element is less than or equal to FINAL.

If you 'caldat' your final time ( end_jd + 1 - (float(step_size) / 86400) ), I suspect this is the issue.

But, I'm not sure why this isn't what you're looking for:

ts=timegen(start=beg_jd, final=end_jd+1,step_size=step_size, units='seconds')
caldat, ts, mo, dd, yyyy, hh, mm, ss
print, yyyy[-1], mo[-1], dd[-1], hh[-1], mm[-1], ss[-1]
2013 10 11 23 59 59.902636

BTW, your original code contains the line
float(step_size)
which is superfluous - step_size is already a float, yes?
