After considering your suggestions and checking Debian-patched cron sources I decided that it looks like you are right, it is not worth the effort. Nevertheless I still don't like anacron, and I would prefer if fcron could replace the standard Debian cron in a simple way. I'm closing the hc-cron ITP, but I'm leaving the request to create 'cron-daemon' virtual package open (#252086). Maybe fcron maintainers would like to carry on, so their package can be installed and cron removed, what is now impossible without removing apache as well (for example)...
