I'm attempting to report a bug but suddenly BZ won't let me in. It
claims my password's expired but won't allow me to reset it. There
doesn't appear to be any way of setting a new password without entering
the old one, and though I am certain I remember the old pw (and Firefox
agrees with me) the page won't recognize it.

In fact I can't even get to the public pages on the server. Every
attempt just brings up the "reset your password" page.

Later:

I removed all bugzilla.redhat.com cookies from FF and tried again. Now I
can get to the BZ Home page, where I see my login details and a handy "I
forgot my password" button. However clicking on this brings up another
dialogue asking for a password in order to proceed!

WTF?
