overriding change_list.html causes 'maximum recursion depth exceeded' exception

[Margie]

I am trying to override the admin sites' change_list.html, following
the example at:

http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/admin/#overriding-admin-templates

If I create templates/admin/myapp/change_list.html and just put this
in it (and nothing else):

{% extends "admin/change_list.html" %}

I get

Request Method: GET
Request URL: http://172.16.84.5:8042/admin/taskmanager/task/
Exception Type: TemplateSyntaxError
Exception Value:

Caught an exception while rendering: maximum recursion depth exceeded
in cmp

I'm using the beta:
>>> django.VERSION
(1, 1, 0, 'beta', 1)

Is this something I should post as a real bug? If so, could someone
point me at the appropriate site for posting a bug?

I can confirm this happens with 1.0.2 Final.

Thanks for confirming it Nick. I saw it also on 1.0.2. I went ahead
and created a ticket, it's ticket 11115.
