djang.http.HttpResponse logic for _is_string is invalid

Description (last modified by Adrian Holovaty)

code currently does effectively thus-

if hasattr(content, '__iter__'):
 self._is_string = False
 self._container = content
else:
 self._is_string = True
 self._container = [content]

Problem is that string objects support iteration.

Fix for it's simple; just do

if not isinstance(content, basestring) and hasattr(content, '__iter__'):

(yes y'all prefer seperate patches, but it's a one liner ;)

pardon the bugspam; forgot about wikiformatting, adding the properly formatted snippet...

if hasattr(content, 'iter'):
 self._is_string = False
 self._container = content
else:
 self._is_string = True
 self._container = [content]
