Comment (by timgraham):
After looking into this a bit more (trying to remove the hack in
`runtests.py`), I think it might be a better use of time to just skip
`postgres_tests` entirely when not testing with the
`django.db.backends.postgresql_psycopg2` backend. While it's nice in
theory to allow executing the non-database tests while testing with other
backends, in practice it seems quite convoluted. Objections?
Maybe a separate test app (without any models) would be the way to go if
there's a strong incentive to allow that.
