Ken wins!
Running cron as a non-root user (probably a good idea anyway)
causes this environment to work properly.

Your prize is a free permanent end-user license for NebulaXLite
for any supported platform.  Developer licenses are free anyway
so for anyone else who contributed to this thread to this point,
I'll offer one permanent license at 50% off.  Given the economy,
maybe that's a new way for us to show our gratitude in these
forums?  :)

Thanks to all.
