> The error comes in the following query:

>   (SELECT *

>    WHERE a.ds = '2008-04-08'
>      AND a.hr = '11'

>      AND b.hr = '14'
>    ORDER BY b.key LIMIT 5) subq
> ORDER BY KEY LIMIT 5
> {noformat}
> But the following query works:
> {noformat}
> SELECT *
> FROM
>   (SELECT *
>    FROM
>      (SELECT *
>       FROM srcpart a
>       WHERE a.ds = '2008-04-08'
>         AND a.hr = '11'
>       ORDER BY a.key LIMIT 5) pa
>    UNION ALL SELECT *
>    FROM
>      (SELECT *
>       FROM srcpart b
>       WHERE b.ds = '2008-04-08'
>         AND b.hr = '14'
>       ORDER BY b.key LIMIT 5) pb) subq
> ORDER BY KEY LIMIT 5
> {noformat}
> The queries are logically identical, the query that's rejected has dummy 
> select * clauses around the sub-queries.
