I think it would be less confusing in these cases to simply write "This is conforming to the SQL standard." and then mention in the appendix that we consider SQL:2003 to be the baseline.
How would this help? ISTM you are just suggesting we replace "conforming to SQL:2003" with "conforming with the SQL standard", and a note in the appendix that indicates by "SQL standard" we actually mean "SQL:2003". If people are really concerned about whether a given feature conforms to SQL-92, SQL:1999, or SQL:2003, all we have done is provided them with the same information in a slightly different form.
