create table buggy ( a int, b int);
insert into buggy values ( 1);
insert into buggy values ( 2);
insert into buggy values ( 3);
insert into buggy values ( 4);
-- this one is ok
select a,b from buggy where a = 2 intersect select a,b from buggy
where a = 2;

select a,b from buggy where a = 2 intersect select a,b from buggy
where a != 3;
-- this also
select a,b from buggy intersect select a,b from buggy where a = 3;
