RunSQL Bug Django 1.7

[Aryeh Hillman]

Django migrations are wonderful, but I have found a bug. Here's how to reproduce (there is probably a more minimal case):

1. Install this function at a shell for PostgreSQL

CREATE FUNCTION exec(text) returns text language plpgsql volatile
  AS $f$
    BEGIN
      EXECUTE $1;
      RETURN $1;
    END;
$f$;

source: ​http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Dynamic_DDL

2. Write a RunSQL operation to help rename some tables

class Migration(migrations.Migration):
...
    operations = [
        migrations.RunPython(
            code=x
        ),
        migrations.RunSQL(
            sql="""select exec(format('alter table %I rename to %I', tablename, regexp_replace(tablename, '^hello, 'goodbye'))) from pg_tables where tablename like 'hello%';"""
        ),
    ]
...

3. Run the migration. I got this error:

Not sure what's going on here. Could it be the custom PGSQL function?
