As the others said, you can either group them together, or as I noted
previously, you can use Bugzilla templates. I think the templates are
going to be a better option for you, based on not being able to see what
you meant about lzo, x264-svn and attr.

Hopefully this URL won't break, as I'm deliberately not shortening it to
show you a template:
http://bugs.gentoo.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=Gentoo%20Linux&version=2007.0&component=Applications&rep_platform=All&op_sys=Linux&priority=P2&bug_severity=normal&bug_status=NEW&alias=&bug_file_loc=&short_desc=Please%20stabilize%20&comment=Target%20keywords%3A%20%0D%0A%0D%0ATest%20procedure%3A%20FEATURES%3Dtest%20emerge%20%0D%0A%0D%0ATest%20procedure%3A%20FEATURES%3D-test%20emerge%0D%0A%28compile-test%20only%29&commentprivacy=0&keywords=STABLEREQ&dependson=&blocked=&maketemplate=Remember%20values%20as%20bookmarkable%20template&form_name=enter_bug&assigned_to=robbat2%40gentoo.org

From the advanced bug filing page, write in a lot of the content that
you want, and then use the button on the button 'Remember values as
bookmarkable template'.

If it takes you 5 minutes to file a bunch of near identical bugs,
something is wrong. The above is my core URL for filing stable bugs.
With a little bit of magic, you can pre-populate every field (eg look at
the KEYWORDS+metadata and work out 'CC' automatically), and then just
fill in a little bit of unique description if needed for each one.
The only time it takes me more than 30 seconds to file a bug requesting
stabilization on one of my packages is if I want to write a detailed
testplan.
