If anybody should be interested, I've placed the modified patch, directly usable for 2.1.11, at http://www.dybdal.dk/mailman-2.1.11-postfix-verp.patch
Uh oh. I remember that patch, I've even tested it (German: http://www.incertum.net/archives/307-Postfix,-Mailman-und-XVERP.html), but it was incomplete (I found that out only weeks after I had written that test).
I don't remember any specific details, but there were definitely problems with double VERP'ifying. Something with the monthly reminders. Whatever you do, don't simply go live with this one, perform more testing first: Password reminders, monthly membership reminders, moderation messages, reject messages and so on.
Don't get me wrong, being able to reduce the number of queue files created can be a major performance increase on busy servers, the above patch just doesn't cut it.
