Issues for someone trying to use it to convert a gnats install
-----------------------------------
1. We have three custom fields bugzilla doesn't ship with,
gcchost, gcctarget, and gccbuild.
We removed two bugzilla fields, rep_platform and op_sys.
If you use the latter instead of the former, you'll need to
update the script to account for this.
2. Because gcc attachments consist of preprocessed source, all attachments
inserted into the attachment database are compressed with zlib.compress.
This requires associated bugzilla changes to decompress before sending to
the browser.
Unless you want to make those changes (it's roughly 3 lines), you'll
need to remove the zlib.compress call.
3. You will need to come up with your own release to version mapping and
install it.
4. Obviously, any extra gnats fields you have added will have to
be handled in some manner.
