The wording in crontab(5) for @reboot could be improved, from:

Please note that startup, as far as @reboot is concerned, is the time when
the
.IR cron (8)
daemon startup.  In particular, it may be before some system daemons,
or other facilities, were startup.  This is due to the boot order
sequence of the machine.

Please note that startup, as far as @reboot is concerned, is when
the
.IR cron (8)
daemon is started.  In particular, it may be before some system daemons,
or other facilities, are started, due to the boot sequence of the machine, and
the order can vary from one boot to another.

This change does two things: it improves the English, and it mentions that
boot order can vary.
