It transports a message such as the following:
[=======================]
mkgnu
61,62
activity_verify
Verification test now..
  
Affected files:
---------------
test/test_file.txt 1.34 --> 1.22
  
SCMBUG_QUIT_END_TOKEN
[=======================]


Note that the username of the user commiting is transported (a better
security scheme is needed). The custom server maps usernames to actual
email addresses (bugzilla usernames) and calls functions provided in
globals.pl. The custom server reads the mysql  database
username/password from a configuration file, and uses that with
globals.pl.
