I dont recall applying any patches to crond..

What should the normal one be, and where can I get it (for raq550)

I'm not sure, but you might want to go looking for a file called 'cli.c' just in case. One of our servers got attacked recently, and the contents of this cli.c file were compiled into crond with potentially nasty side-effects.

Best,
