Comment (by Aymeric Augustin):

 I found a workaround that doesn't require patching Django, but that may
 affect performance:

 {{{#!python
 # Because of https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/9318, declaring
 # `@dispatch.receiver(..., sender=myapp.MyModel, ...)` wouldn't
 # trigger this function when a subclass is saved. So we perform the check
 # manually with `issubclass(sender, myapp.MyModel)`. This is
 # inefficient because any save(), for any model, now calls this function.
 @dispatch.receiver(signals.post_save)
 def request_saved(sender, instance, created, **kwargs):
     if not issubclass(sender, myapp.MyModel):
         return
    ...
 }}}
