Why doesn't the following work:

mysql> CREATE TABLE dog(id integer, breed char(20),
age integer, weight integer)
;

mysql> SELECT breed, MIN(age)
    -> FROM dog
    -> GROUP BY breed
    -> ORDER BY MIN(age);
ERROR 1111: Invalid use of group function

but this does

mysql> SELECT breed, MIN(age) AS minage
    -> FROM dog
    -> GROUP BY breed
    -> ORDER BY minage;
