APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• An XML query may return incorrect result when it has all the
  following characteristics
    1. The query has a sub-select referencing OLAP function, such
  as rownum in Ora comparability mode, row_number() over (), etc.
    2. There is ORDER BY clause in the same or outer sub-select of
  the OLAP, and the columns in ORDER BY clause have expressions
  whose out-most function is XMLCAST.
  

Local fix

• Manually rewrite the query to compute the ORDER BY XMLCAST
  expression as close as possible to the base table access, and
  replace ORDER BY expression with simple column returned from
  inner sub-select.
