It will be hard. GNOME Bugzilla is heavily customized (e.g. patch status
dropdown) and some changes need to be converted to proper extensions
(like Browse, PatchReview, WeeklyBugSummary, StockAnswers).

Would be helpful if Olav could outline that, yes. There's a raw codedump
of some stuff at http://bzr.mozilla.org/bugzilla/extensions/ which is
untested and non-working in its current state.
