I think it means the configuration files for the site list (normally
named mailman) are corrupt.

There may be messages in Mailman's 'error' log indicating what files
were tried.

Normally (if the list is named mailman) there will be a
lists/mailman/config.pck and a lists/mailman/config.pck.last and these
will be tried in that order. There may be old (pre 2.1alpha3)
config.db and config.db/last files if the list is that old. I'm
guessing the config.pck is corrupt and caused the error and others
weren't tried.
