Not to restart an old discussion, but they seem quite different to me. Severity is customer-facing, i.e. how severe the impact is to them. Priority is inward-facing, i.e. how important it is to fix. Maybe the customer with the severe impact is not an important customer, or the customer doesn't think it's severe but for other reasons we really need to get it fixed. For project tracking and planning purposes, priority is the most important, but especially if you're going to let customers see into your trac, severity can be important to them.
