Try again:

If I do this in urls.py

...
    ('^accounts/login/(.*)', 'django.contrib.auth.views.login'),
...

I get TemplateDoesNotExist exception, because the template parameter is
empty. The full snippet is
http://dpaste.com/73893/
The template name is empty already at the callback (line 33) - so it gets
lost rather early.


If I do this (nothing else changed at all):
...
    ('^accounts/login/(.*)', 'django.contrib.auth.views.login',
{'template_name': 'registration/login.html'}),
...

I get
TypeError at /accounts/login/login() got multiple values for keyword
argument 'template_name' (one of them seems to be empty, the other one the
one I pass in).If I hardcode the template name in the django code as a hack,
it works, so there is nothing wrong with my template.

It is a straight django 1.0 beta1 installation on Python 251 on XP.

Bizarre.
