What level of code are you running? That code you show was added during the
development of 1.1 in r9739:
http://code.djangoproject.com/changeset/9739
but it was changed before the release of 1.1, in r11250:
http://code.djangoproject.com/changeset/11250
So you appear to be running an SVN checkout from sometime between January
and July of 2009? If so, it's probably in your best interest to update to an
official released version.

I don't know how to get this working on the level of code you have. To do it
with 1.1 or higher, you'd want to reverse admin:index, as documented here:
