10728d93bc Attempt to fix problem with users being able to convince the crontab
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.

808a36ef65 Make the long-awaited change from $Id$ to $FreeBSD$
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.

Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore.  This update would have been
insane otherwise.

54a3fb7337 Paul Vixie's cron, version 3.0. Munged into bmake format. If this goes
well, expect our two seperate directories for cron and crontab to go away
shortly.
