manage.py syncdb breaks for some proxy models

[jds]

If the proxy model is in an application listed before the parent model's application, the table does not get created.

I have an application, testapp, with this testapp/models.py:

from django.contrib.auth.models import User

class MyUser(User):
    class Meta:
        proxy = True

INSTALLED_APPS has testapp listed before django.contrib.auth. The auth_user table does not get created.

This is related to #11428. The patch shows where the issue is.

If this is intended behavior, a small addition to the Available Settings > INSTALLED_APPS documentation would clear this up.
