Yep.  I was editing "boost.mc" so in /etc/mail I did

  make boost.cf
  cp boost.cf sendmail.cf
  make restart

Another problem I'm been having is the inability to get past the end
of 

  http://www.gnu.org/software/mailman/mailman-install/node40.html

i.e. 

     review the site list's configuration via the admin pages.
     You should also subscribe yourself to the site list. 


<20 minutes of flailing later>...oooh, http://my-domain/mailman/admin
works

I guess it would be good if the instructions would tell me how to find
that :)
