      If I run the following code:

       try :
   jiraissue = s.jira1.getIssue(auth,issue) # look up the issue
 except :
   print "Bad Issue skipping", issue #not a valid jira issue
  raise

      On an issue that has since been moved, the following exception is raised:

      Bad Issue skipping SYS-48
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./makeReleaseNotes.py", line 68, in ?
    jiraissue = s.jira1.getIssue(auth,issue) # look up the issue
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/xmlrpclib.py", line 1096, in __call__
    return self.__send(self.__name, args)

    return self._parse_response(h.getfile(), sock)

    return u.close()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/xmlrpclib.py", line 744, in close
    raise Fault(**self._stack[0])
xmlrpclib.Fault: <Fault 0: 'java.lang.Exception: java.lang.NullPointerException'

      It would be nice if the Remote API could support moved issues
