Same here, except that the format isn't particularly tightly
controlled. I added a simple tweak to ViewVC to find bug ID
references (if halfway sanely formatted) and turn them into
hyperlinks. No hooks needed, which means it works fine with old
revision messages (even from CVS) -- so long as the string has
something vaguely like "bug 1234" in it anywhere, it'll get hooked to
bugzilla.
