Thanks. For the archives, this appears to work on a list named "testlist"
...

new file Mailman/Handlers/MyHandler.py:

import re
from Mailman import Errors
from Mailman.Handlers.Hold import hold_for_approval

class BadWords(Errors.HoldMessage):
   reason = 'Message has bad words'
   rejection = 'Your message contains forbidden words.'

BADWORDS = re.compile(r'(\W|^)word3(\W|$)|(\W|^)word6(\W|$)', re.I)

def process(mlist, msg, msgdata):
   for part in msg.walk():
       if part.is_multipart():
           continue
       if BADWORDS.search(part.get_payload(decode=True)):
           hold_for_approval(mlist, msg, msgdata, BadWords)



new file lists/testlist/extend.py:

import copy
from Mailman import mm_cfg
def extend(mlist):
  mlist.pipeline = copy.copy(mm_cfg.GLOBAL_PIPELINE)
  # The next line inserts MyHandler ahead of Moderate.
  mlist.pipeline.insert(mlist.pipeline.index('Moderate'), 'MyHandler')
