indeed, that's what users are - more or less implicitly - supposed to do ;)
It's been said on ML, but perhaps not (clearly) documented (yet) in the src.

Note that your crontab line would be much more efficient using find(1)'s
-delete internal command, if your version supports it, or rm(1) via its
-exec directive, ie

$ find $HOME/.crm114/reaver_cache -type f -mmin +60 -delete >/dev/null 2>&1
$ find $HOME/.crm114/reaver_cache -type f -mmin +60 -exec rm -f "{}" \; >/dev/null 2>&1

BTW, BlameSegfault is not much 'latest stable'.
