First of all, the bug I reported earlier happens if you access this URL:

http://host/mailman/admindb/        <-- note trailing slash

It tries to cause an "Invalid options to CGI script" error, but can't
because of the typo in Mailman/Cgi/admindb.py, line 77:

 doc.AddItem(eader(2, "Invalid options to CGI script."))

where Header is misspelled.  That fixed the crash.  But I think that
this URL (admindb/) should work just like admindb without the slash --
it should say that you must specify a list.
