[antlr-interest] Different parse tree in 3.1 Vs 3.4

Try the following:

1) You have things like:

    : KW_RESTRICT
    -> ^(TOK_RESTRICT)

Which are a little pointless - you could just use the existing parser
token:

    : KW_RESTRICT

But writing a single token will not produce a node anyway.

Next, you have things like this:

    :
      keyValueProperty (COMMA keyValueProperty)* -> ^(TOK_DBPROPLIST
keyValueProperty+)
    ;

Which I think will need to be:

    :
      k+=keyValueProperty (COMMA k+=keyValueProperty)* -> ^(TOK_DBPROPLIST
$k+)
    ;

Start with that and let's see where you get to.
