[Mailman-Users] Strange errors

[Dan Szkola]

OK, I found something extremely odd. For some reason,
the Utils.pyc in /usr/local/mailman/Mailman/Logging
direcotry is being removed and then the compile of it
seems to fail and I'm left with a 0 byte file. It is
owned by the daemon user and later it gets compiled
and is owned by the mailman user.
