Thanks for your help Richard..  taking out the select_related()
results in the same problem.   Isn't a OnetoOneField just a fancy name
wrapper for a foreign key??

mysql> describe itemengine_gear;

I can't believe I used this OnetoOne and populated a whole db around
this model and it's broken.  Do you think this is a bug ?  Is there
some way I can trick django and change the model to a regular foreign
key without having to start everything over?

Thanks.
