This is easy to do.  I just run rpm -q --changelog httpd on an EL5 box
and the very first BZ# listed in that is closed to public:
- - mod_ldap: copy the global mutex from the base server to vhosts
(#1101385)

The second, fortunately, is open.

(#1058426), (#976465), (#1047319), (#1078177), (#1003073), (#991367)
and (#970994) all closed, that's eight out of the first ten unique bz
numbers listed in the httpd changelog.

I could go on, and check other packages and other versions of CentOS
as well, but the results will largely be the same.

This has been a well known issue for some time and I don't see RedHat
changing this extremely annoying habit anytime soon.  I would want to
make certain that this doesn't happen to CentOS (or even
CentOS-originating) bugzilla entries were we to switch to using the
RedHat bugzilla system, this to me is of great concern as it plays
directly to the transparency of the project as a whole.
