Since the wiki is ikiwiki, it might be worth using the bug tracking
available in ikiwiki:

  http://ikiwiki.info/tips/integrated_issue_tracking_with_ikiwiki/

or just create a dedicated instance of ikiwiki just for tracking bugs
(possibly as part of the source repository, so that bugs get carried
around with the source in git, and can be closed with the commit that
fixes them, etc.)

Cheers, Phil
