 I've just updated from 1.5 stable to latest commit
 aaec4f2bd8a63b3dceebad7804c5897e7874833d.

 `Model.objects.filter(mycharfield=None)` ''used to'' return instances
 where mycharfield is actually a zero-length string.

 Now, it seems I need to explicitly specify
 `Model.objects.filter(mycharfield='')`

 Minor change, but the implications could be pretty severe for some apps.

 Suggest either reverting to previous behaviour or updating the "backwards
 incompatible changes" list.
