Should be back now.

Real archive was fine, HTML was borked.  Mailman has a script to
regenerate the HTML in such cases, so this was a one line fix.

Logs suggest that this was residual damage from an unintended
experiment on the interactions between KVM's and FreeBSD's respective
ACPI implementations (verdict: don't try this at home, kids) which
triggered an unclean shutdown and minor damage to one of Mailman's
databases.  Thought we'd cleaned everything up at the time, but
apparently Mailman's HTML generator had gotten its knickers in a twist
over this and was quietly logging backtraces that nobody noticed
(well, //of course// Mailman has its own private logging system that
doesn't integrate with anything else, that's a feature, right?).

Thanks for the alert.  Please report any continued weirdness.
