Well, as I mentioned in my previous email, I'm not sure if this is an
error in the JDBC driver.  We could conceivably return the first result
found from a combined query like you've shown.  I'm not sure what the code
implications are, but it seems like a reasonable thing to do from an
interface perspective.

To get this working with the current code you will probably have to split
it up into individual queries.  In my previous email I also mentioned that
using Statement.execute() instead of Statement.executeQuery() might work,
but I've not tested it.
