Hi Developers,
There is a rumor that mailman security check is not proper and recommending patch to void our security check. Can someone write
a refutation to this article? (In a fluent English of course ;-)

Initial Comment: [I tried to send this to mailman-developers, but my message was discarded]
I've just downloaded and installed the latest mailman 2.1.6rc1 and encountered a CGI permissions problem (running with Apache 2.0 on Scientific Linux 3.04), for which a patch is described in: http://minaret.biz/tips/mailman.html
(briefly, replace getgid with getegid in common.c)
Applying this patch resolves the problem I was experiencing.
Is there any reason this isn't applied in the mailman distribution?
