this could only have come up in mysql, by the way
writing this (which is what you had) --
select a, b, c, count(*) ... group by a, b
is invalid in all other databases
you will find that in the result set, there will be one row for each
combination of a,b, but the value for c in the results is unpredictable
see
GROUP BY and HAVING with Hidden Fields
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/group-by-hidden-fields.html
however, in your case what you actually wanted was this after all --
select a, b, c, count(*) ... group by a, b, c
so you're okay
