I tried this on squeeze now and it's better. The original error is logged:

Apr  3 17:39:01 orion /usr/sbin/cron[14418]: (*system*local-test) RELOAD 
(/etc/cron.d/local-test)
Apr  3 17:39:01 orion cron[14418]: Error: bad hour; while reading 
/etc/cron.d/local-test
Apr  3 17:39:01 orion /usr/sbin/cron[14418]: (*system*local-test) ERROR (Syntax 
error, this crontab file will be ignored)

And after the mv local-test{~,} (nullify last broken edit), it does work
fine again.

Regarding the more general issue of invalidating the whole file, do you mind
if I file a new wishlist bug report?
