Seems sysmerge does not upgrade crontabs. Does *this* qualify a bug? :)

Fresh install:

30      1       *       *       *       /bin/sh /etc/daily
30      3       *       *       6       /bin/sh /etc/weekly
30      5       1       *       *       /bin/sh /etc/monthly

After upgrade from <4.6:

# do daily/weekly/monthly maintenance
30      1       *       *       *       umask 077; /bin/sh /etc/daily
2>&1 | tee /var/log/daily.out | mail -s "`/bin/hostname` daily output"
root
30      3       *       *       6       umask 077; /bin/sh /etc/weekly
2>&1 | tee /var/log/weekly.out | mail -s "`/bin/hostname` weekly
output" root
30      5       1       *       *       umask 077; /bin/sh /etc/monthly
2>&1 | tee /var/log/monthly.out | mail -s "`/bin/hostname` monthly
output" root

Obviously since 4.6 daily/weekly/monthly bring their own mail routine
with them. For me,

"All four scripts now suppress section headers when there is no content
to follow. When a script produces no output whatsoever, it does not
send mail to root any more. This may require adjustment of your parser
scripts."[1]

was not clear enough.
