status of CURSORs after DISCONNECT

Hello,

When an ESQL/C written process issues a

EXEC SQL DISCONNECT [connection];

do the opened CURSOR(s) still survive? We run into the problem that the
father process issues DISCONNECT before forking children, the forked child
CONNECTs to the same server and database again and "thinks" it has to CLOSE the
CURSOR (perhaps a long standing bug in our application we port now from
Sybase(...) to PostgreSQL).

Thanks
