Comment:
The patch doesn't work properly. For example, on the 1.6 branch, the
`VERSION` is currently `(1, 6, 2, 'alpha', 0)` which cause the branch
which returns `pep386ver + '.dev'` which is the version of Django we have
on the server + '.dev'. We could continue to try to make this work,
although it might be simpler just to revert this trick and the associated
`sys.path` hack as I'm not sure it buys as a whole lot besides one less
final to bump on each release:

I'm going to leave a comment on Ramiro's original commit to get his input.
