Comment:
As discussed on django-devs, the approach in this patch is certainly not
one we would consider. We will not work around lack of support for this
feature in the database backend, and certainly not with magic values.
So, given that the original bug is basically fixed for DBs that support
it, the only thing left to do for this ticket, as Malcolm said, is to add
tests for the DBs that do support it.
So I'm marking as 'needs tests' for that reason, and so that this ticket
does not appear on the 'patches needing review' report - but not to say
that the current patch would be appropriate and just needs tests.
