Many.  Considerselect 1 / 0
In general I'd think that most errors in the "data exception",
"cardinality violation", "insufficient resources",
and "operator intervention" categories are possible.  See the
error codes appendix for some ideas.

And of course, if the SELECT invokes a user-defined function,
no holds are barred ...
