That file is OK. I wondered what the 5 lists with good 
htdig conf files might have in common and decided to compare 
list creation dates with the date of mailman upgrade (Jun 1):
these 5 lists were created or recreated after the upgrade!
I wrote before that

and looked more closely now at this 'created recently' list: 
it was, actually, created *before* the upgrade. 

I've upgraded mailman umpteen times and usually without any problems,
but it looks to me like the problem was caused by a glitch during 
my installation of mailman/htdig under 2.1.2, in that older lists have 
retained htdig conf files from 2.1.1 release. Does it sound right?

Thanks much for your help!
