strange cron message

	I have been getting the following message from my 4D/25, running 3.2.1
software:
----------------
Date: Thu, 13 Sep 90 05:00:27 MDT
From: Super-User <root>
Apparently-To: root

find: stat() failed: /tmp/croutONAa00141: No such file or directory


*************************************************
Cron: The previous message is the standard output
      and standard error of one of your cron commands.

---------------


Given the time and date of the message, I suspect it is due to the following
command in roots crontab file:
----------
3       5       *       *       *       find /usr/preserve -local -type f -atime
 +30 -mtime +30 -exec rm -f '{}' ';'

-----------

	Does anyone know what is going on?

	Yours in unix-ignorance;
