While I haven't read any postfix related READMEs, all I had to do was just
worry about two things, mail-gid and cgi-gid. Now I know just so well that
my MTA (Exim) has a gid=6 and apache has a gid=80 so life was simple because
I did not want to tweak the rest. So if I were you, I'd use the following
(change 6 and 80 to reflect yours). Group ids are listed in /etc/group for
the OSes I know ;-)

./configure --prefix=/opt/mailman --with-mail-gid=6 --with-cgi-gid=80
make install
