Description

Using the current SVN, I ran my first syncdb and it didn't accept an underscore when it says it does.

You just installed Django's auth system, which means you don't have any superusers defined.
Would you like to create one now? (yes/no): yes
Username (Leave blank to use 'cmgreen'): !cmgreen
Error: That username is invalid. Use only letters, digits and underscores.

Either the prompt needs to be changed to just letters/numbers or the validator needs to be fixed (as per SmileyChris's patch).
