I don't see this as a problem, since postings to moderated GNU groups would FAIL until the necessary mailpaths line was added. This would serve as incentive for laggards to get their act together. Sending a monthly "newgroup <group> moderated" (one for each moderated GNU group) to the gnu distribution would make sure that new sites had the correct groups marked moderated. (It also would stir up a lot of ire until leaks in the GNU distribution were plugged. :))
