This is a common requirement. My take on this is that you want to be able to target a fix for one or more versions and you also want to track the fixed_in_version to those versions. You would also want to track the status of the issue for each of these versions and potentially the person doing the fix or the port may be different. Hence, the recommended way to do this in Mantis is to create Port issues that point to the original issue. Hence, you can track who is responsible for the main issue and each port, what is the status of each port, what is the target version, the fixed in version, and potentially the CVS/Subversion integration comments.
This is also the approach we use to track issues in Mantis that are targeted for both development and stable versions.
