Bug in django.contrib.auth built in unit tests?

I'm using apache2 along with RemoteUserBackend as an
AUTHENTICATION_BACKEND to pass in REMOTE_USER. When this is enabled
the built in unit tests are failing [1]. Its obvious there are no
users created and this fails, however should this be classified as a
bug??? I haven't been able to find anything in the bug tracker.

Adding the following to each classes setUP and tearDown methods lets
me around this.

from django.conf import settings
def setUp(self):
self.old_backend = settings.AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS
settings.AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = None

def tearDown(self):
settings.AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = self.old_backend
