e->cmd. free_entry() now does the right thing with
partially-initialized structures.
load_entry(): Don't call env_free() on e->envp throughout the routine
before jumping to eof; the free_entry() call at that label will take
care of it. The previous behavior resulted in e->envp being free'd
twice (well, the second time would usually result in a crash, but
that's besides the point); once in load_entry(), and once in
free_entry() after the former called the latter. Also note that the
check added to free_entry() (above) doesn't help, since e->envp wasn't
reset to NULL after env_free().

The new option name is not "-d" because that would cause associations with
"debug" and cron already has "-x" for debugging, so this would cause
confusion.
program to read any file which is a valid crontab file.
The fix is based on that used in NetBSD and OpenBSD - we keep the
file open while the user is editing it. This means that files must
be edited in place. Cron attempts to warn you if your editor does
not do this. The fact that the file must be edited in place is also
noted in the man page.
This patch has been confirmed to work by atleast one person on
-security and has been tested locally.

allocated memory was instead pointed to a static string. A later
free() on the value of the pointer was a possible source of reported
"warning: pointer to wrong page" messages from cron.
