Can you tweak Mozilla's MediaWiki so that it can autolink to bugzilla bugs?

Thus instead of editors writing

[https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=315637 315637]

they could simply write

[[mozbug:315637]]

This is a lot easier to enter and maintain when/if bugzilla links change.

MediaWiki seems to support this, see http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Interwiki_links#bugzilla_links ; but it doesn't seem to work here. Test: mozbug:315637
