So, what should the behavior be of a constant declared as

CHAR 'hi'

? Right now it fails, since SQL9x asks that the char type defaults to a
length of one and our parser does not distinguish between usage as a
constant declaration and as a column definition (where you would want
the "char(1)" to be filled in). But istm that for a constant string, the
length should be whatever the string is, or unspecified.

Comments?
