myCustomProfile.friends() returns empty array

Calling some instance of a MyCustomProfile object's friends() method returns an empty array. Data is being received from facebook (raw_data contains real data in the database), and I believe I have the necessary permissions turned on (the permissions page when authorizing the app explicitly states "read your friend list"). I'm also getting this issue (the following is the same data posted there, I just placed it here for posterity): https://github.com/tschellenbach/Django-facebook/issues/386

Running on Django 1.5.4 and django-facebook 5.2.10:

Relevant portions of settings.py:

  DATABASES = {
      'default': {
          'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.sqlite3', # Add 'postgresql_psycopg2',       'mysql', 'sqlite3' or 'oracle'.
          'NAME': '/opt/django/mydb.db',                      # Or path to database       file if using sqlite3.
          # The following settings are not used with sqlite3:
          'USER': '',
          'PASSWORD': '',
          'HOST': '',                      # Empty for localhost through domain       sockets or '127.0.0.1' for localhost through TCP.
          'PORT': '',                      # Set to empty string for default.
      }
  }
