No reporter is listed, and changing bugs will include a , , where their e-mail
should be.  Not sure of the cause of this one but IMO users should not be able
to file a bug if no e-mail address is given.

Here is the output I got when changing bug 93373.  Notice the , , after dveditz
on the changed bug and after tpreston on the original duped bug.

seems that the person used <myemail@address.com> as his email address, so the
browser sees this a a tag and doesn't display it. I think the fix for this would
be to escape those characters (and maybe others)? Or is this considered a feature?
Thanks Basic for finding that cause of that.  Changing summary to reflect what's
going on.  Also, I'm going to file a bug on a full name with a space like you
demonstrated just now :-P
Summary: Reporter email/name blank → Email address should not allow "<" or ">"
This is fixed, however, bugzilla.mozilla.org hasn't picked up the changes yet.  
They'll get it next time they update.
