Older Python version...which should not be a problem.  It's warning you
that, when bin/newlist prompts you for a password for the administrator of
the new list, the call to getpass() *might* show what you type.

This is a problem if
   1.  it actually does show what you typed (you already know whether it
did); and
   2.  you're in the habit of setting up mailing lists with bad guys
looking over your shoulder.

I'll defer the above to others who have encountered the problem.  It would
likely be helpful if you mentioned what mail transfer agent (MTA:
sendmail, Exim, Postfix, qmail, etc) you are using, and what Linux/Unix
version.
