We don't normally do security updates for contribs stuff. This isn't
a set-in-stone policy, but I'm usually too busy supporting main
packages for 6-7 distros I don't pay any attention to stuff in
contribs (aka unsupported).
One possibly compromise may be for me to rebuild bugzilla for 8.0 on
my own time, but since it's a simple set of perl scripts, anyone
should be able to grab bugzilla from contribs and install it without
any adverse affects.
