This appears to have been found and fixed, since the problem does not occur
when using a fairly recent trunk level:
Python 2.5.1 (r251:54863, Mar 7 2008, 04:10:12)
[GCC 4.1.3 20070929 (prerelease) (Ubuntu 4.1.2-16ubuntu2)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

>>> import django
>>> django.get_version()
u'0.97-pre-SVN-7501'
>>> from django import newforms as forms
>>> class DataForm(forms.Form):
... data = forms.CharField()
...
>>> df = DataForm({'data': 'x'})
>>> df.is_valid()
True
