Right, I see your point. Being XML I'm sure concatenating them and modifying
the unique IDs isn't going to be a huge issue though - I'm sure at some
point in the past someone has had to do this? We possibly need a way to do
it consistently as other projects join ASF and bring their previous issue
tracking with them too.

I'd say its worth checking out on jira-user first - the friendly guys at
Atlassian should be able to help out.

Cheers,
Brett

that won't work.  The bugzilla import is different from the Jira XML
import/export.  I can import bugzilla into an existing Jira system, but the
Jira import is a REPLACE operation.  It is used for backup or migration to
another DB server, but not for selective migration.
