> When the point is not at the very end of the iSQL buffer, the
> process-mark is not kept in a reasonable state if sql-send-string is
> called.
> 
> Example to reproduce bug:
> 1. Open a sql-mode buffer.
> 2. Connect to a SQL database of choice.
> 3. Move the point of the iSQL buffer to the top, e.g. with M-<
> 4. Send good queries via sql-send-string, sql-send-region etc.
> 5. In iSQL buffer, move point to end, e.g. with M->
> 6. Enter a good query.
> 
> Expected result: The new query successfully sends and sql process 
> returns output.
> Actual result: Whatever contents had been output from the 
> sql-send-string, sql-send-region etc. will be sent along with the new query.
> 
> To fix: a call to (end-of-buffer) can be placed within the
> (save-excursion ...) context before sending any input in the
> sql-send-string function, e.g.
> 
> ;; from sql.el with fix for bug added with BUG FIX comment:
