You're missing the bin directory and Python's files.  Are they
correctly specified in the chroot?

They should be in the chroot's /home/www/var/log hierarchy (except
maybe syslog if that's being logged to a pipe or socket).  Is that
where you're looking?

I don't see an fstab entry for /var/log.

Assuming you just omitted correct fstab entries for /usr/bin,
/usr/lib, etc, because the basic chroot configuration gets that right,
I wonder how you installed the new Mailman.  Did you run apt or dpkg
in the chroot, or did you tell them to install to /home/www instead of
to /?  Try grepping the CGIs in /home/www/usr/lib/mailman/cgi-bin for
"/usr/", and also run "strings wrapper | grep /usr/" on the wrapper to
see if the paths look sane (specifically you don't want any /home/www
in them).
