I did a cursory search of the mailman-user archives:

http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/

but didn't find any reference to this bug.  I suppose we should report 
it to them.

Apparently they don't have a bug tracker, just the lists.  I imagine the 
code doesn't change very often.
