Thanks. So I have to hack it manually?

My problem with ODBC in general is that I've been running into
problems where the MySQL ODBC driver doesn't do auto-reconnection
properly. Explicitly opening and closing connections causes my Haskell
application to crash for some reason with a segmentation fault.

Debugging ODBC errors is no fun too, so that's why I'm looking around
for an alternative.

Thanks again, hopefully I can get that to work somehow and see if I
get farther with HSQL instead of HDBC.
