-------------------------------------

I have a fix for this as part of HIVE-1953, patch currently waiting for review. I have tested the fix for both reported error cases and it seems to fix the reported errors.

> semicolons in sql comments cause a parse error when trying to execute the query via hive -f
> As an example, this query runs fine:
