./configure # went fine make # went fine except "make[1]: [add2lib] Error 1 (ignored)" make install # went fine (no errors)
Later ran into a problem with fcntl.
So, I ran make test and get this:
test test_fcntl crashed -- exceptions.IOError : [Errno 22] Invalid argument
Advice? This is Mac OS X Server.

I know you realized this was a Python build problem, but just FWIW, Mailman doesn't need the fcntl module. The one import of it in Mailman/Utils.py in version 1.0 is unnecessary and I've removed it for the next release (not that this will make any difference for running Mailman on the Mac -- I don't think anybody's tried this yet).

The only reason I learned of the fcntl problem was because when I tried to set up my first "test" mailman list as described in the install document, I got a fcntl error. So, at least mailman 1.0 seems to need it. (?)
As for Mac OS X Server -- it's UNIX, BSD 4.4 (descendant of NeXTSTEP).
