FYI I do have three crontab manual pages installed on my system, two by
the cron package and one by man-pages-posix package. The 'man 1 crontab'
seems to be the one we want to parse though, it will be picked by
default since the predefined order starts with the section 1, but we may
as well specify it explicitly.

Also I will check my collection of virtual machines, with a bit of luck
all of the SLES versions that used /var/spool/cron/ are out of support
now.
