Trying to dynamically generate labels in newforms

[Kirk Strauser]

I'm using a Newforms subclass, and trying to dynamically generate the labels 
for each field at runtime (long story, but it really does make sense for 
what we're doing).  Apparently I'm doing something wrong, though, because I 
always end up with the default label text and not what I'm specifying.  For 
example:

class TestForm(forms.Form):
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        super(ArrivalForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
        self.base_fields['somefield'].label = 'foo'

    somefield = forms.IntegerField()

This doesn't have the behavior I'd expect of changing somefield's label 
from 'Somefield' to 'foo'.  Is this possible?
