There were two parts that I see in mailman's apache config:
        ScriptAlias /mailman/       /usr/lib/mailman/cgi-bin/
        <Directory /usr/lib/mailman/cgi-bin/>
                AllowOverride None
                Options ExecCGI
                Order allow,deny
                Allow from all
        </Directory>

The part above, I expect to need to keep.
The part below here, is what I think I can just remove since I don't
want public archives provided via pipermail.  (Just private archives
via the mailman path.)

        Alias /pipermail/ /var/lib/mailman/archives/public/
        <Directory /var/lib/mailman/archives/public>
                Options Indexes MultiViews FollowSymLinks
                AllowOverride None
                Order allow,deny
                Allow from all
                AddDefaultCharset Off
        </Directory>
