Ugh, that's definitely a bug.

While we can certainly hack it by something along the lines of not
recognizing INTO when the first token was IMPORT, the whole thing
seems awfully messy and fragile.  And it will certainly break again
the next time somebody decides that INTO is le mot juste in some new
SQL command.  I wish we could think of a safer, more future-proof
solution.  I have no idea what that would be, though, short of
deprecating INTO altogether.
