Errr, you can have flags on attachments, so you can mark attachments 
with a  "minimized test case" flag, and query all of the existing ones.

It takes about 7 lines of perl to extract them:

# Include the Bugzilla CGI and general utility library.
use lib qw(.);
require "CGI.pl";

# Establish a connection to the database backend.
ConnectToDatabase();
use Bugzilla::Flag;
use Bugzilla::FlagType;
my (%criteria);
$criteria{"target_type"} = "attachment";

#This is the minimized flag id
$criteria{"type_id"} = "3";
my @results = Bugzilla::Flag::match(\%crit);
