 Replying to [ticket:29039 Vackar Afzal]:
 > We have a large number of migrations in our application now, and as a
 result it can take 20 mins to create a test DB.
 > To make this faster I am settings MIGRATION_MODULES in my settings as

 > for app in INSTALLED_APPS:
 >     if app.startswith('django.contrib.'):
 >         app=app.replace('django.contrib.', '')
 >     MIGRATION_MODULES[app] = None

 > I've found that this breaks the --keepdb option as it Django wants to

 > The workaround I found is to modify django.db.backends.creation.py
 (lines 64 to 70) from
