Putting PROC entries in the DEFAULT section is generally a bad idea,
unless you never - ever - want to have exceptions from the rule.

I'd suggest removing it from the default section, and using this
instead:

HOST=*
	PROC    %(/usr/sbin/cron|crond).* 1 5 EXHOST=mrtg-wat
	PROC    %(/usr/sbin/cron|crond).* 1 HOST=mrtg-wat

or some similar configuration.

Ouch, there's some problems with the config file parsing in the 4.1.2
releases. I'm not entirely sure the above will work in 4.1.2p1; you may 
have to list the hosts explicitly for this. It's fixed in the 4.2
release candidate currently being tested.
