Summary: Administrative interface vs. non-standard HTTP ports

Initial Comment:
I still find that mailman's administrative interface
behaves incorrectly on HTTPDs running on non-standard
ports.  It simply discards the port information out of
the URL, despite DEFAULT_URL* settings.

On some pages, the URL to the FORM ACTION is relative
(eg, the "General Options" form) while others, it is
absolute (eg, the "Membership list").

Looking around the source, I've found lines like this

(on Mailman/Cgi/admin.py)

adminurl = mlist.GetScriptURL('admin', absolute=1)

Changing the value of ABSOLUTE to 0 solved the problem,
and I've found it pretty harmless.  Any specific reason
for the ABSOLUTE=1 setting?
