 Currently, syncdb command will only create ManyToMany tables for a field
 if the model that field belongs to are newly created. For example, if I
 first have:

 {{{
 #!python
 class A(models.Model):
       foo = ...
 }}}

 Then I run `python manage.py syncdb`, it will create a table for `A`
 model.

 Then I add a new field to this model, say:

 {{{
 #!python
 class B(models.Model):
     ...

 class A(models.Model):
       foo = ...
       bar = models.ManyToManyField(B)
 }}}

 Then I run `python manage.py syncdb` again, it won't create the needed
 ManyToMany table for me, the only way to have this table created is to
 drop the previously created table for `A` first, then let syncdb to create
 them for me again. I think it is inconvenient and need to be fixed.
