Note that the "--with-cgi-gid" option will accept a -list- of groups,
but only -one- of them ends up being used.  Which one?  "The first
value in the list that resolves to an existing group is used." (That
sentence starts two lines above your ">>" in the above snip.)  Do not
confuse what "--with-cgi-gid" accepts as an argument with what your
web server will accept as an argument for "Group".

I think you are looking down the wrong end of the telescope.  Edit
httpd.conf to make your web server happy; supply the correct argument
to "--with-cgi-gid" to make Mailman happy.  What will make Mailman
happy?  That which matches your web server configuration.
