Almost. That alone would also end on and infinite loop on CPython.

This is directly from django.db.models.Model:

    def __str__(self):
        if hasattr(self, '__unicode__'):
            return force_unicode(self).encode('utf-8')
        return '%s object' % self.__class__.__name__

The key is the hasattr() check. It's always true on Jython because
__unicode__ is defined on object.

Anyway, I just noticed that the uploaded test case uses the hasattr, so it's OK.
