Small fixes.

106968:8c9b1893adfe

** When reporting a bug, to send a Cc to another address
(e.g. [e-mail]), do NOT just use a Cc: header.
Instead, use "X-Debbugs-CC:".  This ensures the Cc address will get a
mail with the bug report number in.  If you do not do this, each reply
in the subsequent discussion will end up creating a new bug.  This is
annoying.

If a new report contains X-Debbugs-CC in the input, this is
converted to a real Cc header in the output.  (See Bug#1720).
It is also merged into the Resent-CC header (see below).

** Usertags

See <http://wiki.debian.org/bugs.debian.org/usertags>

"Usertags" are very similar to tags: a set of labels that can be added
to a bug.  There are two differences between normal tags and user
tags:

1) Anyone can define any valid usertag they like.  In contrast, only a
limited, predefined set of normal tags are available (see above).

2) A usertag is associated with a specific email address.

** Bazaar stuff

*** You can use the commit --fixes emacs:123 to mark that a commit fixes
Emacs bug 123.  You will first need to add a line to your bazaar.conf
(untested):
