Is "real" an official SQL data type or is it a result of SQLite's
"anything goes" approach?

RedHat's SQL docs indicate there are a number of numeric types that
we don't check for:

http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/database/RHDB-2.1-Manual/sql/datatype.html#DATATYPE-NUMERIC

are those "official"? should we support them all? (probably with a
case|esac call in the shell script)
