I found the problelm in
Cgi/admindb.py, line 116
the reference to /mailman/admindb/ was a problem. I think the "mailman" part should be gotten from the DEFAULT_URL, perhaps?
I don't think that DEFAULT_URL has anything to do with this problem -- the fix is rather related to not depending on the not-really-standard (I think) REQUEST_URI environment variable. Please bear in mind that this is the first time I'm trying to do any CGI-related programming at all, but I still _think_ this patch is good (from reading the CGI/1.1 spec, and testing quickly that it doesn't break my web interface).
