Looks plausible. It probably means that one call to Message.as_string
somewhere _does_ need mangle_from_=True (an argument to be added to
as_string, to be passed to Generator), but I don't know enough about
Mailman internals to know which one. I guesstimated the one in
Mailman/Archiver/pipermail.py, but that does not fix the issue. The
very best way to solve this would be an upstream fix for the bug that
this Debian patch fixes ;-) , that is
