fcron runs missed jobs if &bootrun is set at the beginning of the line in fcrontab. fcron has cron and anacron features all in one and works perfectly.
I've heard quite a few good things about fcron. Am I right in thinking it has some slightly different syntax? I think it was rejected as Arch default for that reason, but I may be misremembering.
I don't know the reasons for choosing cronie as the default instead of fcron. But as far as I know the syntax is indeed slightly different, but this has to be changed only once, and I doubt that this is a big problem. Heiko
