Most of what we have been talking about should target roundup.
Following Nick's thoughts, even the patch generation could be made a
Roundup option rather than CPython specific.

There shouldn't be any core Roundup differences that have not been also
submitted upstream.  The bugs.python.org *instance* is, of course,
bugs.python.org specific.  That's not a lot of code; though the
open id and Rietveld support MVL added is non-trivial.

The repo for the instance is at hg.python.org/tracker/python-dev.
tracker/roundup is our copy of Roundup itself.
