Description:
If the view's SELECT has a FROM clause with an AS clause "AS v", then I can't create a 
view named v. 
 

How to repeat:
mysql> create table t (s1 int); 
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.28 sec) 
 
mysql> create view aaa as select * from t as aaa; 
ERROR 1066 (42000): Not unique table/alias: 'aaa'
