I closed the bug, WORKS FOR ME.  Investigation revealed that the install
somehow provided multiple processes of cron active.  Whether I did it or
the install script, I don't know.  Killing the extra processes resolved
the problem and cronie has performed properly for the last eight hours.

Will advise if further problems.
