Basically cron has never been integrated with desktop infrastructure.
I'm not sure exactly why gnome-keyring worked before.

I think the most practical fix would be a cron patch that talks to
ConsoleKit (if available) to determine if there's a current login
session, and if there is, it reuses the infrastructure (X server,
dbus-daemon, etc).  If there is no login session, it spawns a bus (and
possibly a dummy vfb X server) for it.
