I had this same problem. I think it is still a problem even after the
fixes marked #5027 and #5917.
I'm a Django newbie, so please forgive me if I'm just confused or if I
have missed any future fixes that address this problem.

Here's a suggested patch to the SelectDateWidget: (to add lines 2-6,
the ones including, and between, the comments)
def value_from_datadict(self, data, name):
#### look first for the data in the 'normal' format
full_value = data.get(name, None)
if full_value:
return full_value
#### else: look for the individual components
y, m, d = data.get(self.year_field % name),
data.get(self.month_field % name), data.get(self.day_field % name)
if y and m and d:
return '%s-%s-%s' % (y, m, d)
return None
Here's my test suite:
class OriginalRecipe(forms.Form):
name=forms.CharField()
birthday=forms.DateField()
class ExtraCrispy(Form):
name=forms.CharField()
birthday=forms.DateField(widget=SelectDateWidget(years=range(2008,2010)))
test_data = {'name':'Teddy Tester',
'birthday':datetime.date(2008,9,30)}
print "HTML from the 'stock' date widget"
print OriginalRecipe(data=test_data)
print
print "HTML from the SelectDateWidget"
print ExtraCrispy(data=test_data)
# without the patch above, the ExtraCrispy output has no date values
selected;
# with the patch, the year, month, and day are selected.
