Comment (by russellm):
@mrmachine - The problem we have here is that the best we can do is guess.
There's no canonical way to tell the difference between a project that was
started under 1.6, and a project that was started under 1.5. The absence
of TEST_RUNNER means either the project was started in 1.6, or it was
started in 1.5, and hasn't been upgraded.
We check for SITE_ID, TEMPLATE_LOADERS etc because they're settings that
were taken out` of the default settings.py for 1.6; but obviously, this
technique is prone to false positives.
Using the old test runner and comparing to the new won't work - if you've
got a new project and a moderately complex test suite, you won't have all
the `__init__.py` tricks in place to cause the tests to be discovered, so
you'll get false positives again.
If you're happy you don't have a problem, you can silence any system check
using [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/settings/#std:setting-
SILENCED_SYSTEM_CHECKS SILENCED_SYSTEM_CHECKS].
