Just in case this is useful for someone, I wrote the following quick doc
for using mailman on a linux/grsec kernel
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Steps you need to take to run mailman on a linux grsecurity protected kernel
1) Install and run securelinux_fix.py -f
2) Grsecurity will not run binaries if the directory they're in is writable
by a user other than root:
panoramix:/var/local/mailman/mail# chown root.mailman .
panoramix:/var/local/mailman/mail# chmod 755 .
panoramix:/var/local/mailman/mail# chattr +i .
3) Apply the same fix to the CGIs
panoramix:/var/local/mailman/cgi-bin# chown root.mailman .
panoramix:/var/local/mailman/cgi-bin# chmod 755 .
panoramix:/var/local/mailman/cgi-bin# chattr +i .
