Build Identifier:

Querying the sys.rejects view or sys.rejects() function results in error message:
Error: No reject table available
SQLState: 22000
This is not expected for a metadata view or function. It should return a (possibly empty) resultset.

Also note that the error message is incorrect as it mentions table: reject while we are querying the rejects (with an s at the end) view and function.
Maybe this is a hardcoded error message string?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Start mserver5 (MonetDB 5 server v11.21.4: compiled from Jul2015 branch with assertions enabled)
2. Start mclient
3. run SQL queries:
   select * from "sys"."rejects";
   select * from sys.rejects;
   select * from rejects;
   select * from "sys"."tables" where name = 'rejects';

select * from "sys"."rejects"();
select * from sys.rejects();
select * from rejects();
select * from "sys"."functions" where name = 'rejects';

Actual Results:

Expected Results:

No error message. It should return a (possibly empty) resultset.

Alternatively if this view and function does not exist permanently, exclude it from the metadata tables: sys.tables and sys.functions

fixed by always creating the bats (when used).
