cron does not do anything

[Ting Zhou]

I'd like to report a bug with Vixie cron. I have cygwin installed with cron option. And I ran "cron-config" and set up everything. Cron-diagnose script didn't find any problem. Cron service was also started without problem. However, cron just wouldn't run the simple command I set up in the crontab "/usr/bin/touch /tmp/abcd". 

Any idea? Thanks.
