I have a situation where I get different results for this:

select ... where FUNCTION(X)>='Y' 

vs

select ... where FUNCTION(X)>=FUNCTION('Y')

And FUNCTION('Y')  == 'Y' so I thought there should be no difference between
the two queries.

For some reason in the latter case it behaves as:

select ... where FUNCTION(x)>'Y'

This is SQLITE version 3.7.3 as we are still having performance issues with
3.7.9

In this specific case FUNCTION(x) just skips some characters at the start of
the string X and returns an alloc'ed string of the rest. e.g

FUNCTION('RE: this') produces 'this'
