Can't set password on User during migration that depends on contrib.auth

Description

I have an app with migrations that depend on the contrib.auth migrations. In one of my own migrations I want to create User objects and set their password. When trying to set a password for User object either through .set_password() or directly on creation through e.g. .create_superuser() I get this error:

AttributeError: 'User' object has no attribute 'set_password'

Attached is a test project. Create a virtual env with Django 1.9 and run ./manage.py migrate in it to see the error.

It seems like the password related methods are not available on the User object, only in the default manager, which I gather is not available in migrations. Is this intentional?
