Comment (by mwdiers):

 Joel,

 I would never rely upon any distro to provide Django, unless you want to
 be stuck on a very old version of the framework, and ignore the incredible
 improvements which have come with 1.0 and 1.1. Installing from source is
 so trivial, it's not worth fretting over.

 A massive amount has changed since the pre-1.0 days, including the ability
 to easily create custom field types, as I note in comment 38 above. 1.0
 and later have no need for a patch like those in this ticket, and that is
 why no work further work is likely to be done to support BigInt in the
 back ends.
