Admin fails on adding empty models

[snprbob86@…]

If you create an empty model with Admin support:

class X(models.Model):  
  class Admin:
    pass

class Y(models.Model):
  y = models.ForeignKey(X)
  class Admin:
    pass

Then try to add an X in the admin interface, you get this error:

Exception Type:  	IndexError
Exception Value: 	list index out of range
Exception Location: 	C:\Program Files\Python25\lib\site-packages\django\contrib\admin\views\main.py in render_change_form, line 206

I tried this on newforms-admin and there is no error with the new admin. No effort is going into old admin so I don't think this will be fixed in the current trunk admin.

Also, "empty models don't work in the admin" has been reported many times, and wontfixed on the grounds that there's nothing to administer there so it wouldn't matter anyway, and in other contexts can be more efficiently emulated by, say, a sequence in the database (since an empty model basically turns into a table with a single, autoincrementing column).
