Thanks for that, John! I can only guess that I've not done many queries
that fall in this category.

" JOIN with a USING clause change
The implementation of JOIN with a USING clause specified has been changed
to match the standard. The implicit column list of a select list with a
USING clause consists of the common columns, followed by the remaining
columns of the first file, and then followed by the remaining columns of
the second file. create table t1 (a1 int, a2 int, a3 int, a4 int) create
table t2 (a2 int, a3 int, a4 int, a5 int) For the select statement select *
from t1 join t2 using (a2,a3) The result column list is a2, a3, t1.a1,
t1.a4, t2.a4, t2.a5 The implicit column list of single table does not
include the USING columns. For the select statement select t1.* from t1
join t2 using (a2,a3) The result column list is t1.a1, t1.a4 The following
statement is not valid. Because a2 is in the USING clause, it cannot be
qualified in the statement. select t1.a2 from t1 join t2 using (a2,a3) The
following is a valid statement. Because a2 is in the USING clause, a single
a2 is in the result, so it should not be qualified. On previous releases,
the SQL0203 message is issued. select a2 from t1 join t2 using"

v7.1 SQL Reference
">|The result table of the join contains the columns from the USING clause
first, then the columns from the first table of the join that were not in
the USING clause, followed by the remaining columns from the second table
of the join that were not in the USING clause. Any column specified in the
USING clause cannot be qualified in the query. "

It was broken when first introduced in v5r4....
