I would like to select data from a table where the table name is located
in another table, and I am using the following query:

select t1.* from (select tbl_name from user_table where user="guy") t1;

This should return the data fom table 'tbl_name', but I only get results
from the subquery (ie. the query as a whole returns 'tbl_name', not it's
contents).  Where am I going wrong?

I am using version 4.1.0-alpha-standard
