Could be.  I remember tweaking the ColConstraint grammar to avoid
shift-reduce conflicts with NOT NULL, and it might be that that got
rid of the problem with NULL as well.

It's still not legal under the SQL92 spec, though, and I'd hate to see
us give up anything else in order to allow a content-free NULL spec to
be added...
