Thanks, both places look correct, but I have one minor "hmph"
comment.

This is somewhat a curious placement---the loop that iterates over
the cron_list FILE with "while (!strbuf_getline_lf(&line, cron_list)"
is the only place the list strbuf is used, and I wonder if it makes
more sense to do this immediately after the loop.

This one looks quite natural.
