Your bug seems to be unreproducible on recent versions of Sympa (here 6.1.3):
--8<----------------------------------------------
# lsof -a -c sympa.pl -c archived.pl -c task_manager.pl -c bounced.pl -c bulk.pl +D /dev/
COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
sympa.pl 6902 sympa 0w CHR 1,3 0t0 761 /dev/null
sympa.pl 6902 sympa 1w CHR 1,3 0t0 761 /dev/null
bulk.pl 6914 sympa 1w CHR 1,3 0t0 761 /dev/null
archived. 6925 sympa 1w CHR 1,3 0t0 761 /dev/null
task_mana 6935 sympa 1w CHR 1,3 0t0 761 /dev/null
bounced.p 6946 sympa 1w CHR 1,3 0t0 761 /dev/null
--------------------------------------------->8---
But I can't reproduce it even with a version closer from yours (here 5.3.4-6.1):
--8<----------------------------------------------
# lsof -a -c sympa.pl -c archived.pl -c task_manager.pl -c bounced.pl +D /dev/
COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE NODE NAME
sympa.pl 4974 sympa 0w CHR 1,3 565 /dev/null
sympa.pl 4974 sympa 1w CHR 1,3 565 /dev/null
archived. 4985 sympa 1w CHR 1,3 565 /dev/null
task_mana 4994 sympa 1w CHR 1,3 565 /dev/null
bounced.p 5003 sympa 1w CHR 1,3 565 /dev/null
--------------------------------------------->8---

I think that it is an old bug bug which has probably been fixed a long time ago
but I will be glad to get your opinion before closing it.
