More easily recreatable by creating a ModelForm for the tutorial Poll model that looks like this:
class PollForm(forms.ModelForm):
choice = forms.CharField(required=False)
class Meta:
model = Poll
exclude = ('pub_date',)
and then from manage.py shell:
>>> from polls.models import Poll, PollForm
>>> pf = PollForm(data={'question': "Where's the beef?"})
>>> pf.is_valid()
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<console>", line 1, in <module>

self.cleaned_data = self.clean()

self.validate_unique()
File "/home/kmt/tmp/django/trunk/django/forms/models.py", line 251, in validate_unique
if f.unique and self.cleaned_data.get(name) is not None:
AttributeError: 'RelatedObject' object has no attribute 'unique'
Problem is the added 'choice' field on the form is not actually a Poll model field, but is findable via Poll's _meta.get_field_by_name due to the Choice model having a ForeinKey pointing to Poll. Fix is simple, I think, but I'm creating the ticket so someone searching on the problem in the future might find that it once existed and when it was fixed.
