Well, there was this:

listserv% ls -l home/list
-rw-r-----   1 root     listserv   10644 Feb  4 09:49 home/list

I moved the file out of Listserv's directory and restarted Listserv, but
the error persists.  [ And the sysadm who likes to administer Listserv as
root (and leave cruft lying around Listserv's directories) has been
flogged. ]

Release and platform information:
