Yes, an example for bugzilla is in
http://hg.intevation.org/mercurial/file/bae9bb09166b/hgext/bugzilla.py

For connecting roundup, a similar hook can be used that either uses
the roundup-admin client or sends appropriate mails or http
requests.

But all this is not very specific to Mercurial, this will even work
with CVS.

Yes, for an example in Mercurial development with roundup see:
http://hg.intevation.org/mercurial/rev/bae9bb09166b
or in a different project with Google code's bug tracker:
http://hg.intevation.org/mirrors/vimperator.org/vimperator-labs/rev/97735160e9b4
