The problem isn't running in the foreground, but systemd's process group handling.

The behavior was different for decades, and this change isn't mentioned in NEWS.Debian to make the user aware. I guess everyone who has been managing cron as a sysadmin will get bitten badly by this change. I'd strongly opt to change the KillMode as mentioned above. #debian-devel seems to agree, so I'm upgrading this bug to RC.
