+There are several things, and one trick. There is a small tiny piece of
+documentation I saw once that said something very important.
+1) After pretty much any manual working of the Mysql db, you must
+delete a file in the bugzilla directory: data/versioncache
+Versioncache basically is a way to speed up bugzilla (from what I
+understand). It stores a lot of commonly used information. However,
+this file is refreshed every so often (I can't remember the time
+interval though). So eventually all changes do propogate out, so you
+may see stuff suddenly working.
+2) Assuming that failed, you will also have to check something with the
+checksetup.pl file. It actually is run twice. The first time it
+creates the file: localconfig. You can modify localconfig, (or not if
+you are doing bug_status stuff) or you should delete localconfig and
+rerun your modified checksetup.pl. Since I don't actually see anything
+in localconfig pertaining to bug_status, this point is mainly a FYI.
