>Description:
Using database created in 3.22 with a field named 'when'
causes errors. For example,
SELECT when FROM atable;
will fail on syntax error. This works:
SELECT a.when FROM atable a;
However, since it's not (apparently) possible to give table
aliases for inserts, the following will fail with no
work-around (using aliases):
INSERT INTO atable (when) values ('2000-1-1');
Worst of all, ALTER TABLE will not work either:
ALTER TABLE atable CHANGE when when_done DATE NOT
NULL;
will fail!
>How-To-Repeat:
Create database in 3.22 with a field named 'when', run the
3.22 database with 3.23 mysqld.
>Fix:
SELECTs can be worked around with table aliases, others not.
