I personally think any other solution, though doable, would not worth the effort. And people using upstream kernel needs to do recompiling anyway so that EXPORT_SYMBOL thing should not be too bad.
EXPORT_SYMBOL(inode_lock); line to fs/inode.c, recompiled the kernel and the modules. Starting mailman in the test environment did not produce the almost instant freeze. I started/stopped mailman several times and the system worked just fine. So I believe the patch above and the plus line in fs/inode.c fix the reported problem. I dunno whether modifying fs/inode.c is acceptable or not...
