In general, "cron != vixie-cron". It turns out that most of the Unix world pre-dates Linux and for various reasons (not the least of which are legal issues, branding, and in-product compatibility) it is generally *extremely* poor form to assume Linux-isms. Clearly, the cron provider should be updated to reflect this reality. Perhaps filing a bug report is in order?
