In short, I back-ported the RPM from RawHide to 7.3.
Sorry for creating the confusion, I've been known to gloss over details before.

RedHat 7.3 has two packages, python and python2, so you have to build it using /usr/bin/python2 instead of /usr/bin/python (--with-python option to configure)
Yes, but why would the spec file have python in it - as I understood from "I had to change the spec file slightly (use postfix and python2 instead of sendmail and python)" when Mailman 2.x requires python2, so if the Mailman spec file for the RPM of 2.x has python in it and NOT python2 there's a problem. However, I assume that /really/ the spec file just links to /usr/bin/python, expecting it to be python2, when some of us (like me, too) have /usr/bin/python -> python1.x and /usr/local/bin/python -> python2.x Something like that. That's me wasting time again. Gotta stop this knee-jerk mailinglist posting habit o'mine.
