title: Installed 0 object(s) from 0 fixture(s) not reading FIXTURE_DIRS correctly
body: <p>Here are my settings</p>
  
  <pre><code>FIXTURE_DIRS = (
        os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "fixtures",)
  )
  
  $ python manage.py diffsettings | grep fixtures
  FIXTURE_DIRS = '/home/user/project/src/fixtures'
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>What is strange when I run syncdb I get the following. 
  It recursively loads each and every char in the fixtures path set in <code>FIXTURE_DIRS</code>.
  It does not find any of the directories as they do not exist. </p>
  
  <pre><code>$ python manage.py syncdb -v3
