One thing that concerns me: I doubt this is supported in other database 
systems... people who relied on this feature in ECPG would likely encounter 
threading bugs if they port their code to other DBs. And threading bugs can 
be nasty to find. Does anyone know how other DBs handle this issue?

I thinks it's a worthy feature, but perhaps the pre-compiler should warn 
people that they are relying on non-standard behaviour?
