I can confirm this bug on ubuntu-server 8.04.
$ uname -a
Linux moodle 2.6.24-16-virtual #1 SMP Thu Apr 10 14:32:04 UTC 2008 i686 
GNU/Linux

We have a dedicated (virtual) moodle server which needs cron.php to be run 
every 10 minutes.
If I add the line */10 * * * * php -q /www/moodle/admin/cron.php > /dev/null as 
sudo crontab -e it will not be run.

If I add it without sudo it works, although both crontab -l are the same:
 $ crontab -l
# m h  dom mon dow   command
*/10 * * * * php -q /www/moodle/admin/cron.php > /dev/null

$ sudo crontab -l
# m h  dom mon dow   command
*/10 * * * * php -q /www/e.famnit/moodle/admin/cron.php > /dev/null
