Please enter a FULL description of your problem:
------------------------------------------------

psql seems to have a problem when combining 'SELECT DISTINCT' with 'ORDER BY'.
In some cases it seems to ignore the 'DISTINCT'

Below is an example. Please note that the field specified by the 'ORDER BY' is
not part of the selected column. The actual query was more complicated, and
needed to sort the result in a specific way.

Please describe a way to repeat the problem.   Please try to provide a
concise reproducible example, if at all possible: 
----------------------------------------------------------------------

CREATE TABLE Bug ( Nr INT4, Name VARCHAR(8) );

INSERT INTO bug VALUES ( 0, 'A');
INSERT INTO bug VALUES ( 1, 'A');
INSERT INTO bug VALUES ( 2, 'B');

SELECT DISTINCT Name FROM Bug WHERE Name = 'A';

SELECT DISTINCT Name FROM Bug WHERE Name = 'A' ORDER BY Nr;

If you know how this problem might be fixed, list the solution below:
