dumpscript and explicit intermediate join tables

[GoogleCodeExporter]

The new feature in Django 1.0 that allows explicit intemediate join tables,
and therefore relationship attributes, has a different API to a standard
many to many field.

This means that when dumpscript adds such a line for a Many-to-many field
with intermediate join model:
    my_object.things.add(other_object)
it will fail.

The simple solution is to simply remove this line, because the intermediate
table is a standard table and the relationship objects will be added anyway.

If you can work out which fields require this.

Here is a patch that should address this issue.

Of course, for backwards compatibility, has there always been a "creates_table"
attribute on fields? I couldn't find it in my "legacy" checkout, so here is a 
more
cautious patch.

Anybody know if this is in the "snapshot of the current version" from github or 
would
I have to apply the patch manually?

I've tried the patch but it doesn't prevent the parent model from trying the 
add on the intermediary model. Can you verify that this works?
