Were you setting it to True or False?

If your code sets it to True, then this should be safe to remove -- in
Django 1.4, HttpResponse always renders its output as a string, converts
its contents to a string, regardless of what type of data it has been given.

If you were setting it to False, for some reason, then you'll have to come
up with a different way of accomplish whatever you're trying to do.

(The original ticket was https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/16494, and
you can see the changes that were made for 1.4 here:
https://code.djangoproject.com/changeset/16829)
