I'm trying to do a query like this using Zend Framework 2:

SELECT count(*) as num FROM mytable

Here's the code I'm using to build my select statement (bear in mind I've
imported the necessary classes):

$select = new Select();
$select->from('mytable')
       ->columns(array('num'=>'count(*)'), false);

This code doesn't work because the resulting query is as follows:

SELECT [count(*)] AS [num] FROM [mytable]

...which throws the following error:

Invalid column name 'count(*)'

This is caused by the square brackets around count(*). How can I get this to
work properly, basically to have count(*) instead of [count(*)] in the SQL.
Also, I know that you can do it with just a regular query, but I need this
to work with the Select object. As far as I know, this used to work with the
previous versions of Zend, I've seen plenty of solutions for those, but
nothing for Zend Framework 2.
