This is intentional. The problem is that including like_definition in
table_definition_body allows things like STORE BY and several other clauses to
follow the LIKE option. But the LIKE code just ignores them all. That is, the
original implementation was incomplete. I wanted to make the unsupported syntax
invalid.
