Comment (by ryan):

 Take a look in admin-footer.php where we call spawn_pinger() and
 conditionally load execute-pings.php inside an iframe.  This is a
 workaround for some cgi environments where spawning doesn't work.  We
 probably need a similar workaround for cron.  We also need a more refined
 blacklist of spawn unfriendly environments.

 Anyway, if we can get cron to fire off reliably in all environments, I
 like having pings goinging through cron.  All of our asynchronous events
 can go through cron where we can take care of spawning and working around
 uncooperative environments in one place.
