I recall discussing this earlier, and after the obligatory objection
that this is non-standard (a la everything M$) it should be OK to do it.
I could have sworn that I'd made this fix, but can't see it in current
sources and can't see any evidence that it ever was :(
Will enable this for v6.5, with the proviso that it is fair game for
removal if it ever conflicts with other SQL parsing needs.
