BUG# 15009
SYMPTOMS
If you use a GROUP BY clause with the bit field (this has to be converted
to another datatype, such as int, char, and so forth) will cause more than
one row to be returned in the result set when only one should be expected.
This problem occurs GROUP BY clause processing during query processing time
especially when there are repeated records in the table.
WORKAROUND
Rewriting the query with the DISTINCT keyword will report the correct
result set.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in SQL Server 6.0 and 6.5.
