I only vaguely recall and can't verify right now, but if I recall correctly, migrations won't be generated with the keywords field with the latest south/Django versions, and in your case, commenting them out is the correct approach - this was done in Mezzanine as well when this became the case.
Sorry I can't provide an exhaustive response - there are many layers to this which just aren't fresh.
