I would build Mailman from source on Mac OS X (after building Exim, since I have no intention of letting port 25 traffic into a machine running sendmail: we abandoned sendmail before I learned more about its configuration than fear).
I've probably done a couple of dozen Mailman implementations by now and feel confident in saying that the only thing consistent about installing Mailman on *NIX is that it is inconsistent. I don't think this is a bad reflection on Mailman at all! Indeed, I think that it is remarkable how flexible Mailman is. But the flexibility becomes much more rigid after the software is compiled. That said, I think binaries are a fairly difficult thing to do right on more highly varied platforms like Linux.
