The list in question never ran under 2.1b4 -- I got nervous about all
the problems people were having with the archiver, so didn't upgrade it
until 2.1b5 was out.  And, just for the heck of it, I did re-run
b4b5-archfix -- no point though, since the grep for '_mlist' turned up
nothing.

Yes, I'm still getting it with the current CVS code.  It comes in
exactly the same place in the execution of bin/arch, and the traceback
is basically identical -- mainly line number differences, and your
recent patch to Mailman/Archiver/HyperArch.py.

Here's are arch's death throes:
