Could it be that in the file /etc/pam.d/crond the line wiich starts with 
session should be terminated with the 'quiet' statement ?
Like this :
#
auth       sufficient /lib/security/$ISA/pam_rootok.so
auth       required  /lib/security/$ISA/pam_stack.so service=system-auth
auth       required  pam_env.so
account    required  /lib/security/$ISA/pam_stack.so service=system-auth
session    required  /lib/security/$ISA/pam_stack.so service=system-auth 
quiet
# Sets up user limits, please uncomment and read /etc/security/limits.conf
# to enable this functionality.
# session    required   pam_limits.so


I havent tried this yet, but my messages file gets filled with these 
messages too. This kind of logging fron cron/pam is abnormally if you ask 
me.
