It's only going to happen if you aren't using systemd, since if you
are using systemd, e2scrub_all gets run out of a systemd timer unit
file. The cron job is the fallback which is only used on non-systemd
systems.

Yes, this will be in the next revision of e2fsprogs. It's unclear if
this is serious enough bug to justify an update to Debian stable
(that's up to the release managers, not me). It will be in the
release of Debian testing and Debian backports, however.
