It's a test database, with a single table in it, and two users (the DBA,
and a normal user).

One of the methods in JDBC's DatabaseMetaData returns details about the
rights granted on the database, so to test the method, I was setting up
the normal user with update rights to the table, so I had something to
work on.

The backend simply dies when ever the grant statement is entered
correctly.
