So, maybe you could send me the required patch?

I agree, it sucks, just like IMHO the whole build in trackers do, but
some of our hosted projects are strongly demanding it.

And after all: it isn't any worse than sf.net is (was?) or any GForge
installation made from the official upstream tarballs, or is it?

oh btw.: is it intentional too, that most of the administrative
mailman addresses are missing or broken?

FYI, here is a fixed version I use on our server:

CREATE VIEW fixed_mta_lists AS
        SELECT
                list_name,
                list_name || '-request' AS list_request_name,
                list_name || '-owner' AS list_owner_name,
                '"|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman post ' || list_name || '"' AS 
post_address,
                '"|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman admin ' || list_name || '"' AS 
admin_address,
                '"|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman bounces ' || list_name || '"' 
AS bounces_address,
                '"|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman confirm ' || list_name || '"' 
AS confirm_address,
                '"|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman join ' || list_name || '"' AS 
join_address,
                '"|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman leave ' || list_name || '"' AS 
leave_address,
                '"|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman owner ' || list_name || '"' AS 
owner_address,
                '"|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman request ' || list_name || '"' 
AS request_address,
                '"|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman subscribe ' || list_name || 
'"' AS subscribe_address,
                '"|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman unsubscribe ' || list_name || 
'"' AS unsubscribe_address
        FROM mail_group_list
        WHERE status = 3;
