One way this could be done would be to create the 'list' list and the
'list-archive' list and then create symlinks from
archives/private/list-archive to archives/private/list and from
archives/private/list-archive.mbox to archives/private/list.mbox.

I think this would work, but there is a potential race issue if
ArchRunner is sliced and posts arrive for both lists concurrently
because there is really only one archive, but separate locks for the two
lists. This wouldn't be an issue if ArchRunner is not sliced as then
there would only be a single thread/process doing archiving.

Sorry, not that I know of.
