The database does die.  I don't know the inner workings, of course,  
but since a single connection can support multiple databases, I would  
guess that the connection knows about the databases using it.  Either  
the database must tell the connection that it is closing, or the  
connection must be able to check a list of open databases to see  
whether any of them are using the connection.
