bugzilla and patchwork seem to have been hit by some agressive bots.
I put blocks for ip ranges belonging to msnbot, bot@semrush.com and
sogouspider on our block.include list.

Things should work again.

We do have to look at the logging/warning reporting of patchwork. It
sent an email for each failing request to the admins, which wasn't fun
and made matters worse by sending thousands of emails from the
overloaded system.

Cheers,

Mark
