Description:
according to my program: 2 handles are leaked in the following Falcon scenario:

1. sql_init(db);
2. mysql_real_connect(db, ...)
(2.5 make some queries or not)
3. kill the underlying mysqld database server from task manager 
4. mysql_close(db);

There was no leaks in that scenario in 5.1.11 version that I used to use. 

I dont call mysql_shutdown in that particular scenario, because the server process is already down (and I didnt call mysql_shutdown in 5.1.11 either).

How to repeat:
Make a small program that uses 5.2.0-falcon C-API (libraries libmysql.lib and libmysql.dll) and chronologically perform the actions in your code.

You can close this fault. I had one process handle that remained open in my code.
