List,
SQL seems to be behaving in a case-sensitive manner:

?column?

LINE 1: SELECT 1;

I cannot figure out how this happened, and Google is not helping because
all I'm getting is information about case-sensitivity in identifiers or
in string comparison. I didn't even think this was possible, as I've
always switched between lower case and upper case keywords, usually
using lower case while testing and upper case to prettify scripts that I
will be saving for reuse.
Interesting.
Does this behavior survive logging out and then back into a session?
It survives complete restart. (This is a laptop that I use for
development and analysis, not a high-availability server, so the first
thing I did when I realized my scripts started failing was reboot.)
Do you have any other client using the database that exhibits this
behavior?
Same behavior in both psql and pgAdmin.
