Bug Description
"update" has fatal problems with lists named like a
language. Create some lists named "it" (Italian) or
"de" (German) an update will crash:
Updating mailing list: de
Updating the held requests database.

(Btw: update crashs if there`s no pending.pck. That
should not happen!)

I don't see either of the problems you mention. I see no problems from the
lack of a pending.pck.
There is clearly a problem with lists named like languages, but the
manifestation I see is for example with a list named 'it' all the templates
get moved from templates/it to lists/it, but nothing crashes. I have fixed
this for the next release.
