Just add this to the top of the system cream-conf:

  if exists("g:cream_conf_system")
      finish
  endif
  let g:cream_conf_system = 1

  [...run-once code following...]

That will ensure it only gets loaded once (on startup). If you have
additional code in this file that you want loaded via autocmd, just
make sure it is above this.

Let me at least suggest that you try to avoid setting too many
alternative defaults. Cream tries to present reasonable ones. We've
structured initial behaviors so the most expected and typical one is
seen first. As a user learns and experiements they will quickly find
the impact of the options, but we're trying to keep code damage to a
minimum at the start. I will expect that you handle support requests
for your users who unwittingly wrap a 3,000 line speghetti function at
80 characters. :)
