I don't think there is one.  Maybe Matthias is concerned that unlike
the other source files in the Mailman distro, mm_cfg.py is supposed to
be where users configure the system, so it may change more frequently
than other files (although still rare, I'd guess).  It'll definitely
change after the initial install+compileall step.
