In one of my earliest design postings here, someone like Grumpy_Mike mentioned that it was good practice to not have signals going under the crystal.
When I wirewrap cards, the crystal is right next to the xtal pins also, with no wires crossing them.
This also goes along with Atmel's Design Consideration app note, see Section 5.
Being an electrical engineer who designed for the defense industry, I know how to follow good design practices.
