The SQL statement above is just for showing what kind
of statement causes the problem. I originally noticed the
problem when I gave \l and then did a little research and
found out that actually \l is implemented as something
resembling what I wrote above. I was just trying to write
the simplest SQL statement I could to generate the problem.
It seems that there needs to be a union and a subselect.
And the really curious thing is that this problem seems
to depend on which redhat version there is!
