But that's the correct/expected behavior, is it not?  That's what I'd
expect at least.  I'd think it's a gotcha for those that aren't good
about explicitly calling BEGIN, but most libraries should do that for
you, ruby-dbi does and used to be overly zealous about that actually
(I just fixed that last night as a matter of fact).  -sc
