You're right, I did leave out something - the clean() method. Nothing
unusual there. In fact, if I take out everything from the method and
leave the shell:

def clean(self):
return self.cleaned_data

It still craps out. However, if I take away the entire method, then I
do get the validation error.

The check for unique fields is done in the base ModelForm clean method. By overriding clean without calling the superclass clean you are causing the checks to be bypassed.
