Is Django's manage.py syncdb or South used to create the test database?

With Django 1.1.1 and South 0.62, running a test from the CLI usually have the following output:

Creating table some_model
Installing index for my_app.SomeModel model
.
-----
Ran 1 test in 1s

OK

After upgrading to South 0.7, the output is invoking South's migration:

Creating table some_model
Installing index for my_app.SomeModel model
Migrating...
Running migrations for my_app:
 - Migrating forwards to 0001_initial
 > my_app:0001_initial
 - Loading initial data for my_app

Migrated:
- my_app
.
-----
Ran 1 test in 1s

OK

To create the test DB, has the test always used South migration in the past(before South 0.7) even if the output is not explicitly being shown?
