I created the /var/lock/mailman directory and reran the install of mailman. The stack dump error went away. There was another error that I have reported separately Why would that directory not exist? It is created by the init script, so if Mailman was running on your Squeeze host, it should be there. I've also not seen this on my upgrades.
