I got a chance to observe that the problem was there some time ago,
but now I'm no longer allowed to view the URL mentioned above.

However, I can only find one place in the Mailman code where a gzipped
file is being created -- and that's the one I fixed by my first patch
to solve this problem (line 889 of current CVS HyperArch.py).

Neither can I find no likely chmod() calls to cause the problems
you're seeing.

So, unless anyone else speaks up and tells me they have similar
problems, I'm going to have to assume that the problem is specific to
your system (in some way -- without having a closer look at the system
from within, I'm unable to pinpoint the problem further).

Sorry,
