'make install' is trying to do

  chmod o+x /usr/local/mailman/archives/private

What happens if you try this as the user that belongs to the mailman
group? If it succeeds, then you can probably complete the 'make
install', but then I wouldn't know why you could do it directly and
'make install' couldn't, and if it fails, I don't know why, but it
isn't a Mailman issue.
