This show-stopper bug seems to have been ignored. And this is a
regression! The previous version of the ifile worked fine.
This is a diff between the old, working version and the new,
non-working version:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] /etc/initng/daemon $ diff -b vixie-cron.i 
._cfg0000_vixie-cron.i
11,13c11
<         pid_file = /var/run/cron.pid;
<         exec daemon = /usr/sbin/cron;
<         forks;
---
>       exec daemon = /usr/sbin/cron -f;

Notice that the new version uses the non-existent option "-f".

So please, revert to the old version!
This is a serious bug. People should not be left without a cron daemon.
