Hi,

In case it helps, I've narrowed this down somewhat; it also happens with 
this far simpler query:

sqlite> select b.val, case when b.val = 1 then 'xyz' else b.val end as 
col1 from
b;
val|col1
1|xyz
2|2
sqlite> select distinct b.val, case when b.val = 1 then 'xyz' else b.val 
end as
col1 from b;
val|col1
1|1
2|2

Thanks,
Dan
