This is exactly what I tried on first guess...and I get this output:

[mailman at chimera whs1996.mbox]$ /home/mailman/bin/arch whs1996 whs1996.mbox
Pickling archive state into
/home/mailman/archives/private/whs1996/pipermail.pck
[mailman at chimera whs1996.mbox]$ 

But when I try to view the archives, I just see:
The whs1996 Archives 
More info on this list... 
Currently, there are no archives. 

Any ideas?  Is this something broken in b6? (which is what I'm running)
