Does cron support @reboot

Does anyone know of the standard implementation of cron (guessing busybox?) supports the @reboot or @shutdown target? I'd like to trigger a call to rsync on shutdown and on reboot and would like to do it in via cron rather than some /etc/rc.d/ target.

You can build your own with CONFIG_BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_CROND_SPECIAL_TIMES=y

If you want it to just work, there's no way around rc.d.
