Description:

SELECT 1, * FROM test_17;
ERROR 1064: You have an error in your SQL syntax near '* from test_17 ....

These querys work fine:

SELECT *, 1 FROM test_17;
....
5 rows in set (0.00 sec)

SELECT 1, test_1.* FROM test_17;
...
5 rows in set (0.00 sec)

This is not really a bug as on is not really allowed to have anything  
fields before or after '*' in a SELECT statement.  
(That we can handle *,1 is a side effect on the parser)  
  
It would be nice to also be able to handler 1,* but for now this is put on  
hold.
