Thanks for the response.  Unfortunately I'm currently stuck with the junk shipped by Debian.  Yet another reason to move to a standalone install and avoid their broken packages.

In the mean time, you can handle these issues via REST or via mailman shell. For example:

$ mailman shell -l list@example.com
Welcome to the GNU Mailman shell
Use commit() to commit changes.
Use abort() to discard changes since the last commit.
Exit with ctrl+D does an implicit commit() but exit() does not.
 >>> pendings = getUtility(IPendings)
 >>> sub_mgr = ISubscriptionManager(m)
 >>> for token, data in pendings.find(pend_type='subscription'):
...     if data['token_owner'] != 'subscriber':
...         continue
...     if data['email'] != 'user@example.com':
...         continue
...     sub_mgr.confirm(token)
...
 >>> commit()

The above will find the pending confirmation for user@example.com on the list list@example.com and confirm it.
