Just as a point of reference, I've run a mailman server on RH7.3 for
years now and have kept it updated with the latest version of mailman
through most of that time.  I have lagged behind at mailman-2.1.5 for
a while because newer versions to have some minor dependencies on
python 2.3 (where rh7.3 comes with 2.2.2) and I haven't gotten around
to updating python yet.

I'd say that any version incompatibilities in mailman have been fairly
rare and minor, at least in my experience.
