Django registration is not compatible with custom user models in Django
1.5, as it directly references django.contrib.auth.models.User in several
places.
If you want to maintain your own copy you can swap those refs for those of
your own User model.

I believe the issue is that you need to define usermanager on your custom
user, and
you will possibly need to inherit from django usermanager and override it
to not
use username anywhere. But at the very least, you need to do something like:
import UserManager from wherever
class CustomUser(User):
objects = UserManager()
