Summary: unique problem with nulls

Initial Comment:
NULL should not be seen as a value, so UNIQUE constraint check should not fail 
over several NULL's in the same column.

The sql examples are:
create table crash_q (q integer,unique (q));
insert into crash_q (q) values (NULL);
insert into crash_q (q) values (NULL);
insert into crash_q (q) values (1);


QUERY = insert into crash_q (q) values (NULL);
ERROR = !SQLException:assert:INSERT INTO: UNIQUE constraint  
'crash_q.crash_q_q_unique' violated


create table crash_q (q integer, x integer,unique (q)) ;
insert into crash_q(x) values(1);
insert into crash_q(x) values(2);

QUERY = insert into crash_q(x) values(2);
ERROR = !SQLException:assert:INSERT INTO: UNIQUE constraint  
'crash_q.crash_q_q_unique' violated
