This has nothing to do with Mailman per se. Your web server is not
allowing you to access the Mailman CGIs.

You apparently have some allow/deny directives that don't allow access
and which apply to /usr/local/mailman/cgi-bin/. This is most likely
the Apache default that denies access to the root directory and thus
requires subordinate directories to be explicitly allowed.

Try adding

<Directory "/usr/local/mailman/cgi-bin/">
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from all
</Directory>
