The "cron is not running" message comes from this:

$data['cronrunning'] = !record_exists_select('cron', 'nextrun IS NULL OR
nextrun < CURRENT_DATE');

So, the cheap and easy way of resolving this issue would be to check
which crons are returned by that query, and list them in the
cronnotrunning message.

In the long run, we should probably file a feature request for a big
fancy admin report that shows you all the cron jobs, when they're
scheduled to run, when they last ran, and that lets you turn them on and
off and reschedule them.

ANOTHER thing to note -- the current code doesn't check all the plugin
cron tables, like activity_cron, interaction_cron, etc. So, the cron for
one of the plugins could be broken, and there'd be no warning to the
admin.
