Hello,

From http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2007-04/msg00319.html :

> The changes (listed in /usr/share/doc/cron/CHANGES) don't appear to break
> compatibility with 3.0.

this seems to be a version of vixie cron which (contrary to the
previous one) consistently (e.g. also in the manpage) does not (yet?,
any more?) support crontabs in /etc/cron.d .

How sad.
