Comment:

 You seem to have ignored all of the logic in the shortcut view that
 attempts to determine the correct site to redirect to, starting here:
 
http://code.djangoproject.com/browser/django/trunk/django/contrib/contenttypes/views.py#L28

 On the face of it, then, it doesn't look to me like replacing a call to
 the shortcut view with a call to get_absolute_url directly will be
 equivalent in all cases. Thus attempting to dodge one bug by making this
 substitution in admin code is not the right thing to do, even as a stopgap
 measure: it will introduce a regression for anyone relying on that site-
 choosing logic being in place. The right way to approach this is to fix
 the base bug.
