It means that cron is running as a user with UID < 100, usually reserved
for special system accounts. I doubt that there's anything to worry
about, but I'd check the crontabs for root and mailman to ensure that
they're running only what they're supposed to. If you don't need to
worry about this, then perhaps you could configure Logwatch to ignore
crond entries.
