16822	HTTPRequest::raw_post_data broken for tests	Whitney	nobody	"The `HTTPRequest::raw_post_data` method does not work for the test suite any more. It seems that the exception is caused due to the changes in django.http (`__init__.py`) during processing of a multipart request. Previously it assigned `self._raw_post_data`, and not it does not. The following change fixes the problem, but I don't know if it's exactly what you'd want to do:

I would have assigned this to version 1.3.1, but there is no choice for that."	Bug	closed	HTTP handling		Normal	fixed		james@…	Accepted	1	0	0	0	0	0
