"Bad" means "are you sure this is an email message?" or maybe in your case "it doesn't seem to be addressed to a list". It is not intended to be unshunted; unshunt ignores the bad queue entirely.
If you want to try to unshunt is, you could "cp $psv ../shunt/$pck", then run unshunt. But most likely it ends up in 'bad' again, unless you deleted that list without telling your MTA.
Sorry, got no time to look deep into details, don't see anything else obvious.
