Indeed. and I was able to reproduce it too, fyi.
That doesn't really work because cron doesn't perform further
fork()s after RLIMIT_NPROC limit is set, but it only exec() a task.

E.g. my cron implementation used at work does an additional fork
necessary for some teardown work thus it doesn't suffer from
this problem.
