[Mailman-Users] getting cgi-gid right

We're retiring the machine running majordomo, so I figure this is a
good excuse to switch to Mailman.
I've built and installed and set up the 'test' list as suggested in the
INSTALL file, but when I try accessing the web page, I get:
Mailman CGI error!!!
The expected gid of the Mailman CGI wrapper did not match the gid as
set by the Web server.
I have tried rebuilding it with a few different cgi-gid definitions,
but still can't get past this. I created a cgi-bin script that does
nothing but create a file and it shows:
-rw------- 1 nobody daemon 0 Dec 18 14:59 /tmp/cgi
confirming for me that the web server is running as group daemon, and I
did a full reconfigure and rebuild of mailman with
--with-cgi-gid=daemon
but I still get this error. Is there some place I can see what GID it
wants and what GID it is seeing?
syslog shows:
Mailman cgi-wrapper (admin): No such file or directory
So is some file missing or is it the GID mismatch? What's a good way
to debug this?
Running Mailman 2.0.7 under Solaris 8 and Python 1.5.2.
Thanks for any help.
