Default Two indentical timed cronjobs, one gets ignored

Hi,

I just had two cronjobs which were set on the same time and the
first match was executed and the second was ignored.

Of course this is not entirely enexpected but is this considered a
bug or something which would be nice to be mentioned in the
manpage as a caveat?

Another thing, crontab -l shows this header.

# DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE - edit the master and reinstall.
# (/tmp/crontab.hwekl21478 installed on Tue Mar 20 03:34:00 2007)
# (Cron version V5.0 -- $OpenBSD: crontab.c,v 1.51 2007/02/19 00:08:38 jmc Exp $)

Wouldn't it be nicer to skip this header?
