Comment(by stichnot@…):

 I forgot to say a couple things about this patch.

 First, my fix triggered an existing bug in the MDBManager class.  The
 m_connID field was being used for two purposes: to keep track of the
 number of existing DB connections, and to create a unique connection name
 for new DB connections.  This could potentially allow a new connection to
 be opened with an existing connection's name, causing the existing
 connection to be closed.  I separated out this field into two different
 fields.  I suppose this means something like bumping the binary version.

 Second, it seems that a cleaner solution may be to create a separate
 thread to do all the opening and closing of DB connections.  I started out
 on that path, but it seemed like an awful lot of machinery to deal with a
 small oddity in the mysql driver, so I took this simpler approach instead.
