Summary:  Problems with code organization

Original Submission:  Hello again,

As I'm configuring Savannah locally, I found the following
problems which potentially may cause inconvenience to me
and others.

1. Local configuration scripts modify CVS'ed files and even
   *themselves* (specifically, savannah/gnuscripts/sv_*,
   savannah/www/css/*.css).

   If someone modifies those files at savannah.gnu.org,
   I will have trouble merging the diffs with my 
   site-specific changes.

   I think, such files should be generated,
   say, from *.in files, much like Makefile.in,
   and not modified in place.

2. The binary 'savannah/gnuscripts/Mailman/sfverify'
   is checked in to CVS, but I found no sources!
   (Hello, GNU police! :-)
   Fortunately, I could make use of 'sfverify.py'. 

3. This is probably minor, but still annoying:

   savannah/gnuscripts/Mailman/mailing_lists_create.pl

   I use sendmail, and in '/etc/aliases'
   sendmail wants the "|command" part to be in double
   quotes.  I had to change lines like those:

     print ALIAS "$listname-admin: |$wrapper mailowner $listname\n";

   to make them look like this:

     print ALIAS "$listname-admin: \"|$wrapper mailowner $listname\"\n";

Cheers,

Sergey.
