It's a bug. The event-trigger patch added EVENT as a new keyword, but
forgot to list it in the unreserved_keywords production, which is
necessary to make it actually act unreserved.

I've committed a fix, and manually verified there are no other such
errors at present, but this isn't the first time this has happened.
We probably need to put in some automated cross-check, or it won't
be the last time either.
