Description

Somewhere in the move to FreeBSD main the default OS cron jobs in /etc/crontab got enabled. It looks like maybe in the past we had a patch that disabled them that got lost.

We don't need anything from that file anyhow, we can just overwrite it with what we need and if users want to customize things they can use the cron package or drop files in /etc/cron.d
