ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN doesn't support adding a default. (There is a
test in the code that's supposed to kick out an error message telling

You can use ALTER TABLE SET DEFAULT to add the default after you add
the column.
Hmm ... I wonder why ADD COLUMN doesn't just call the SET DEFAULT
routine to handle adding the default ...
