10849	management loaddata: bad syntax not reported, results in successful return code	Phil Mocek	nobody	"When bad syntax is used with the loaddata command of the
auto-generated manage.py, no error is printed at verbosity levels 0
and 1, and manage.py's return code indicates success.

The built-in usage help indicates that the fixture argument is
mandatory:

{{{
Usage: manage.py loaddata [options] fixture [fixture ...]
}}}

However, when no fixture is specified, the return code from manage.py
indicates success, and an error message is printed only at verbosity
level 2:

{{{
$ ./manage.py loaddata ; echo $?
0
$ ./manage.py loaddata --verbosity=1 ; echo $?
0
$ ./manage.py loaddata --verbosity=2 ; echo $?
No fixtures found.
