That recommendation may be a little old.

Use the latest version of 2.4.x.  As you've demonstrated, the 2.5 
stuff is not yet fully baked, and Mailman 2.1.8 and earlier are not 
compatible with it.  $DEITY-only-knows what else they're going to 
break in the process of trying to "fix" 2.5.

I'll update the FAQ Wizard to reflect this.
