Why does apticron ignore held packages?  Wouldn't one want to know about
security updates even for packages that are in the held state?

In my case in particular I certainly do.  I have been keeping all
installed packages on hold in order to cause more confirmation
prompting from non-interactive aptitude when I install something.
(I _think_ it affects aptitude, although I haven't check that in a
while.)
