Mailman is trying to save the current list configuration which it does
by the following steps:

1. Save the data to a unique temp name.
2. Remove (unlink) config.pck.last
3. Link the name config.pck.last to the file config.pck
4. Rename the temp name to config.pck

This is the "safe" way to essentially rename the old config.pck as
config.pck.last and save the new data as config.pck.

In steps 2. and 3. we ignore "non existant" errors, but raise all the
rest.

In your case, when we try to remove
'/usr/local/mailman/lists/aen/config.pck.last' at step 2, we are
getting the [Errno 22] Invalid argument: error from the OS.

What does

  ls -l /usr/local/mailman/lists/aen/

show?
