Works for me in every branch back to 7.1 ... what version are you using?

regression=# create table memmast (memid varchar(8));
CREATE
regression=# select substr(memid,1,1) as memtp, substr(memid,2,4) as newx, count(*) 
from memmast group by memtp, newx;
 memtp | newx | count
-------+------+-------
(0 rows)
