What surprised me about this report was not that the JOIN syntax exposed
a dependency on column c, but that the non-JOIN syntax didn't. There
shouldn't be any semantic difference AFAIR, so it seems to me that at
least one of these behaviors needs to be fixed.
I am not sure that it's practical to remove the dependency as Tim is
hoping for...
