Yeah... My old team used to anodize. No problems with cracking, but re-welding anything was bad news. Are the cracks the result of powder coating + welding? Or is it just that the cracks are more visible due to the powder coating? Its kind of a dumb question, I know, but I don't think any of our anodized welds showed cracks (aside from a fall off a ramp in 2007).
