Ben,
We have received two such components in the past two years. They performed well when solderability tested. Your question is one I had also but I have not seen or heard anything about process for making these leads.

Subject: [TN] Solderable Nickel?
TechNetters,
I've received several components recently that were plated with 'solderable nickel' and to my surprise they soldered just fine (using a ROL0 flux).
Anyone know what is going on to keep the nickel from oxidizing?
Ben
