I suggest another way, which is simpler and more pythonic IMHO.

In your urls.py rename urlpatterns to base_urlpatterns; then add the followinig definition at the end of the same file:

urlpatterns = patterns('',
    '^', include(base_urlpatterns), # iff you wish to maintain the un-prefixed URL's too
    '^your_prefix/', include(base_urlpatterns),
)

@lallulli: I agree, your solution is much better!
