Loading some incomplete fixtures no longer works

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



Prior to 1.4, a default value was inserted for fixture objects that were missing

a specific date or datetime value when auto_now or auto_now_add was set for the

field. This was something that should not have worked, and in 1.4 loading such

incomplete fixtures will fail. Because fixtures are a raw import, they should

explicitly specify all field values, regardless of field options on the model.





Features deprecated in 1.4
