How many .sql files does this affect?  Alternate expected output is
bothersome; if more than one test file is affected, I think the best is
to isolate the cases where this appears to a single .sql file, as short
as possible, so that we don't have to touch it for anything else, and so
that we don't have to touch the isolated file except for similar
changes.

Also, do we need a buildfarm member running 5.22?
