Nick, I don't think this makes sense. Why add a warning when crontab could just silently add the newline (assuming the text it's given has non-zero length), as a previous commenter suggested? It's always better to silently do the right thing, if possible, than to issue a warning.
(Also, please always use 'diff -u' rather than plain diff; plain diff's output is not suitable for source code changes as it breaks as soon as the code it might be applied to changes.) -- Crontab accepts files with no newline before EOL/EOF.
