Hmmm. It does raise the question: where should they go? I'm guessing
that they are holdovers from the PostQuel language, but don't know for
sure. We should either document them or remove them from the parser.

How about writing a doc page for them, but basically _only_ show syntax
and then say that they are equivalent to, for example, ROLLBACK, and
refer to that doc for more info?

I have changed all the references to the 'end' manual page to 'commit',
but left the 'end' manual page.

...and what about the non-standard ABORT statement this is also an alias
to ROLLBACK. Do we need it ?
