Description:
------------
When forking a php skript using pcntl_fork, the PDO connections to a MySQL server are lost as soon as one of the processes exits (parent or child, which ever exits first) and the remaining process can't continue to execute queries (or, even worse, is interrupted during an active query).

the code to reproduce is a CLI script as the application i'm working on is one too. you will need to replace username & password. also, I had to change the file extension in order to make it downloadable.

Reproduce code:
---------------

Expected result:
----------------
before fork
records returned: 1
child
records returned: 1
parent
records returned: 1
after fork
records returned: 1
end

Actual result:
--------------
before fork
records returned: 1
child
records returned: 1
parent
records returned: 1
after fork
