This is a bug in the Fedora package.  There is a patch which changes
_( to C_( for better internationalization support, and that patch
missed this instance.  It's been fixed in rawhide (fedora devel), but
hasn't been pused to F-7 as of yet.

You can correct this by edting /usr/lib/mailman/bin/check_perms and
changing _( to C_( on line 216.  After doing this on my F-7 box, the
output I get on a freshly installed mailman is:

# ./check_perms
Warning: Private archive directory is other-executable (o+x).
         This could allow other users on your system to read private archives.
         If you're on a shared multiuser system, you should consult the
         installation manual on how to fix this.
