Bugzilla definitely does -- bug #4 in the database was created using the
"bugzilla-submit" script that comes with the distribution.  It looks
like we can fake this in Roundup using its mail gateway script.  Trac
requires writing a trivial Python script.

Along with automatic Buildbot tickets, it might be possible to add a
post-commit script to Subversion to append commit messages to tickets
and/or close them.
