Yes, it's a known bug:

http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/6755

which basically says "Inheritance doesn't work with admin". It won't be
fixed in current admin, so if you are interested in getting it fixed
soonest, you should consider moving to newforms-admin and helping Brian
identify specifics of what does not work with the newforms-admin code and
inheritance (see his last note in the ticket -- he's attached a small patch
for one issue but needs details on what other problems exist).
