You're absolutely right, and this is a bug in the parser -- I probably
misplaced the IF NOT EXISTS clause while playing with Tomas' parser
changes.  Here's the fix.  I'm a bit troubled that this change doesn't
seem to affect any tests, so I'll add some before pushing.

(Now, "statistics" being plural would seem to call for CREATE STATISTICS
IF NOT EXIST, rather than EXISTS, but I'll put that thought aside on
account of it being just too weird ...)
