I'm just as puzzled ;-)

I don't know. I shut down each installation of mailman via the
/etc/init.d/mailman.$domain init script before doing the `make && make
install` after specific configuration options for each install.
I suppose it's possible a stray process was still running?
Anyway, the problem is sorted for now and I have some additional info for a
single source of the pythonlibs. Now just to make sure a future upgrade path
isn't compromised by opting for this.
