Eliminating the PHANTOM command from cron UV jobs is very dangerous
because all the jobs will use the same shared memory segment.  Not a
problem if you never have more than one cron UV process running at a
time, but if two should ever exist concurrently - very bad.  There have
been a few threads on this over the years.  One not too long ago, I
think.
