Hello
I was confused when I though so I found a solution of 1 shift/reduce conflict :(
All identificators used for buildin functions have to be a
col_name_keywords or reserved keyword. There is conflict with our
(probably obsolete) feature SELECT colname(tabname). So for this
moment the real solution is removing CUBE and ROLLUP from keywords and
dynamically testing a funcname in transformation stage - what is
slower and more ugly.
ideas?
