Wow, this sure sounds completely bogus to me.
Imho CURSORS opened inside a transanction (after BEGIN WORK) are supposed to
be closed (at least with autocommit=yes).
I do not think COMMIT is supposed to do anything with a prepared
statement. That is what EXEC SQL FREE :statementid is for.
That would then match e.g. Informix esql/c.
