Yeah. This is fixed in HEAD (v18-to-be) but the fix is too invasive
to consider back-patching. Basically the problem is that older
versions don't understand that the post-ROLLUP value of "a" can be
different from the pre-ROLLUP value, so they think the "where a = 1"
clause removes any need to sort by "a".
As a workaround you could write something like "order by a+0, s desc"
to fool the optimizer into considering the ordering column to be
different from the value that's constrained by WHERE.
