You may also use a beer can shim (strip of Al cut from a can the width and circumference of the spigot) under the pipe, split as described above to pack the joint.
I think a cracked spigot is more likely to result from over tightening a clamp on a poorly fitted pipe or a misaligned system than expanding pipe due to heat. If you think about it. Maybe.
