Also please read the SQL spec. I recall having looked at this once
with the idea that it should be an easy Sunday-afternoon hack, and
discovering that making it do what the spec envisions was harder than
I thought. I forget now just what the issues were, but I remember
there's more there than meets the eye. (Type coercion might have been
part of it ... don't recall for sure ...)
