Description
The following, from http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/django-admin/, should mention that initial_data must have the .json or .xml extension for syncdb to see it:
syncdb will also search for and install any fixture named initial_data. See the documentation for loaddata for details on the specification of fixture data files.
Perhaps replace with
syncdb will also search for and install any fixture named initial_data.json or initial_data.xml. See the documentation for loaddata for details on the specification of fixture data files.

This is mentioned in the
loaddatasection, but the attached patch briefly notes this in the {{{initial_data}} section too.
