Bug#297786: mailman: many python2-isms in security update

[Nick]

OK change "many" to "a few," I fixed at least a list comprehension and a 
call that should have used apply, I thought there had been like 3 or 4, but 
I could be wrong.  Mostly in driver.

There are certainly not many; the whole patch from woody5 to woody11
is 190 lines.
I can see one single in the scripts/driver where list comprehension is
used, but not any more than that.  If you could tell me which ones you
find, it would be, so I could get them fixed.
