Compiled C wrappers are used in Mailman 2.1 to ensure that
unauthorized local server users can't run the web UI and mail posting
scripts. For more information on how this works, see
<http://wiki.list.org/x/tYA9>.

When Mailman 3 reaches general release, we can deprecate Mailman 2.1
and remove the note about C.
