Lockfile.__write is a nearly trivial function; I doubt this is a bug,
rather a configuration issue or an environment it's not designed to
work in.

It appears this process is running as www-data.  Does
/var/lib/mailman/locks exist?  Is it a directory?  Is it readable and
writable as a directory by www-data or www-data's group?  Is it on a
local disk, or some kind of network file system?

This is not provided by Mailman, I suspect, unless it's a link to a
Mailman script.  What does it do?  Is it just a call to
/var/lib/mailman/scripts/driver?
