Description:
Hi All;

When I perform a query on any table such as

SELECT * FROM mytable LIMIT 10;

I get 10 rows. If I do the following:

(SELECT * FROM mytable LIMIT 10);

I get all rows in the table returned.

Sorry if this is a repeat, but a quick search of the bug system didn't turn anything up.

How to repeat:
(SELECT * FROM mytable LIMIT 10);

Substitute your own table name.
