Err, sorry  I misspoke -- I'm no unix guru. A non-working list shows:
drwxrwx---    2 root     mailman      4096 Aug  2 14:54 database
Vs the working list that shows:
drwxrws---    2 mailman  mailman      4096 Aug 24 15:46 database

Running check_perms gives no errors..

Not a one.

I am "this close" to exporting the user lists, removing the list, and  
re-adding it.
