Can you send me (via mailman-cabal) the patch -- I don't want to have to
cut and paste it out of the referenced bug report.

If you do this, I will include the change_pw script for Mailman 2.1.6
and make a /dev/urandom based password optional based on an mm_cfg.py
variable.  I'm not sure exactly how to handle the listinfo text, but
I'll think of something.
