I'm having a hard time reproducing this, so I need more information.
Exactly how did you do the upgrade? Which version of Python are you
using? Do you see any errors in logs/error that might be relevant?
Try using bin/dumpdb on both the (old) config.db value and the (new)
config.pck value and check attributes like `data_version', and
`delivery_status'.
Below is the process I'm using to upgrade a list, see how that
compares. I'm going to go ahead and release alpha4 today anyway, so
I'm sure if this is a real problem we'll get lots of complaints ;}.

In the personal options page, you'll just see some prose describing
the reason your membership has been disabled. The user shouldn't
care though, if they want to re-enable their membership it doesn't
make a difference why they were disabled.
I thought about it for the membership list admin pages, but I couldn't
think of a good u/i that wouldn't clutter up that page even more. And
I'm not sure it's worth it. If the admin enables, then re-disables a
member's delivery, the flag will change from <whatever> to BYADMIN.
This could potentially disrupt disable warning notifications, but I
don't think its worth cluttering up that page to deal with what ought
to be a rare occurance (and besides, I'd eventually like cron/disabled
to handle UNKNOWN, BYADMIN, and BYUSER disables).
