I do just about the same as Adam suggests.  Sometimes that
"site:bugzilla.redhat.com" google search is fastest.  I also have a few
firefox smart keyword bookmarks setup
(http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Smart+keywords and
http://johnbokma.com/firefox/keymarks-explained.html) for searches that
I frequently do.  

Thanks,
