CVS will do its best to merge the updates with your changes, but if it 
doesn't succeed, you will have to integrate the updates with your 
changes manually.

I suggest you take a copy of your Bugzilla tree, run the update on that, 
and fix the conflicts at your leisure. You can then copy the code back 
over when upgrade time comes (and run checksetup.pl.)
