If you update the patch state in the new system, you get a list of
patches that can be filtered by state/submitter/etc, like:
http://ec2-184-73-78-92.compute-1.amazonaws.com/project/gcc-patches/list/

But I assume that's not everything you want so our long term goal should
be to have the features you need implemented directly into the system,
although in the meantime we could have them implemented as separate
tools, using our system as a data source via its xml-rpc API.
