I forgot to mention that my cron job was already updated to output to
a regular file, but even this still does not work. Chains are gone
after reboot.
[root at mars ~]# cat /etc/cron.hourly/iptables.cron
#!/bin/sh
/sbin/iptables-save > /etc/sysconfig/iptables

When I do that, after I reboot, I get this:
[root at mars ~]# iptables -L
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
