Really? I've dealt with relatively few projects that use github as a bug tracker, and it's been my experience that most anything that's really serious has its own bugtracker (usually some form of bugzilla) - though most such projects predate github by a long shot. I'd think that signing up for a bugtracker would be par for the course and that if anything, the fact that a project was using github issues instead of its own bugtracker would imply that it was small, which doesn't necessarily give a good impression - especially for a compiler.
I think it's related to the culture of the language. Have a look at Ruby on Rails [1] for example. Basically the biggest Ruby project there is, it's using GitHub for issue tracking.
