I've only ever used Mantis, which I think is excellent, even if not aesthetically pleasing; and Trac, which I prefer because it's part of a complete project management system. The only drawback with Trac is that it's written in Python so I'm not familiar with the code... I'd love it if someone could make a PHP version of Trac.

Of course it would be useful if it implemented at least the same features as existing systems. However, I wouldn't use it if it wasn't better than Trac or Mantis.

You may also want to look at Flyspray.

Didn't see it anywhere else so I'll mention it GForge.
It's really an entire project management thing with some pretty cool bug tracking features. It's got most of the features you'll see from trac and is PHP.
It's kind of a pain to install, but once you get it running, it's really cool. Especialyl the CLI stuff :)
