Description

When upgrading to post-magic-removal merge, forgetting to remove the pesky comma here

class Admin:
    list_display = ('owner','name'),

will give you

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "manage.py", line 11, in ?
    execute_manager(settings)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/django/core/management.py", line 1241, in execute_manager
    execute_from_command_line(action_mapping)

    num_errors = get_validation_errors(outfile)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/django/core/management.py", line 894, in get_validation_errors
    if not hasattr(cls, fn):
TypeError: hasattr(): attribute name must be string

A more friendly message would be helpful...
