I think debbugs is fairly close to what we'd need, for reasons stated
earlier:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2005-05/msg01156.php
(I think Bugzilla is *completely* the wrong tool for the Postgres
development model.)
I've heard vague comments from Debian people that the debbugs code is
kind of evil, although I haven't confirmed that myself. Writing a system
like this from scratch would not be much work, anyway...
