Hmmm.  We (CodeWeavers) are looking into putting together a bug tracking
system for the Wine project, and are strongly considering debbugs.  Is
the suckage specific to bugs.gnome.org, or to the debbugs system in
general?  I seem to remember hearing about problems with email header
fields.  Is that the main problem, or are there others?

I'd hate to invoke a plague of locusts upon the Wine community.  (c:
