The qrunners aren't called via cron anymore, but there are still other
functions that Mailman 2.1+ uses cron for.  From the INSTALL file for
2.1.5:

    - Set up the crontab entries.  Mailman runs a number of cron jobs
      for its basic functionality.  Note that if you're upgrading from
      a previous version of Mailman, you'll want to install the new
      crontab, but be careful if you're running multiple Mailman
      installations on your site!  Changing the crontab could mess
      with other parallel Mailman installations.
