Description

I'm using revision 5878 to start a new project. I have this in my model:

first_name=models.CharField(max_length=100)
last_name=models.CharField(max_length=50)


And I have django.contrib.admin enabled. When I use the Admin App to add a new object of that class, I get the following error::

Traceback (most recent call last):

TypeError at /admin/members/people/add/
init() got an unexpected keyword argument 'max_length'

If I comment out lines 46-67 in django/utils/maxlength.py and change my CharFields records to "maxlength" I can add a object but not view it. But changing that file seems wrong.
