Yowch. If so, that is really a very stupid idea. Database queries need
to be in a different thread(*); it's not as if the mysql backend isn't
using threads already anyway.
* they wouldn't HAVE to be if the MySQL people would get the idea that a
properly designed async database library is a good thing to have. Oh well.
