If it's a known issue, it's in Trac. Given that this is a bug in a new
feature to Django, if it is known, it is almost certainly on the todo
list for the release:

http://code.djangoproject.com/query?status=new&status=assigned&status=reopened&group=component&milestone=1.2&order=priority

In this case, I can't see anything obvious that would cover the
problem you describe, so a new report (including a specific set of
example models and a sample fix) would be very helpful.
