You're true. /etc/cron.d/anacron is taking care of this possible issue
by starting anacron if the computer was alive for more than 1 day
(checked on Lucid).
Thus marking this bug as invalid. Sorry for the time lost.
** Changed in: ubuntu-meta (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Invalid
--
crontab assumes a daily computer poweroff when anacron is installed
