    Bug#22687 (Functions UNIQUE_USERS, GROUP_UNIQUE_USERS) · 9655f5fb
    malff/marcsql@weblab.(none) authored
    According to some internal communication, these two functions are place
    holders for future enhancements. Because they use a variable number of
    parameters, the implementation defined a reserved keyword for them in the
    parser grammar.
    
    Unfortunately, doing so creates a bug similar to Bug 21114 reported for the
    function FORMAT.
    
    In the 5.1 code base, due to improvements in the code implemented with bug
    21114, having a reserved keyword for functions with a variable number of
    arguments is not needed any more by the implementation.
    
    As a result, this fix removes the place-holder implementation, and removes
    the unnecessary reserved keywords. Should the functions UNIQUE_USERS and
    GROUP_UNIQUE_USERS be finally implemented in a later release, the
    implementation should sub class Create_native_func in sql/item_create.cc.
    For example, see the class Create_func_concat.
