Not really. You already had a query queued up and ready to run.
MySQL, by the way, works EXACTLY the same in this context.

mysql> select * from test
-> select * from test;
ERROR 1064 (42000): You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the
manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right
syntax to use near 'select * from test' at line 2
