because I get no responses, I think this is really a bug, so I submitted it as bug #6431.
Well, since nobody picked this up...
I added a setAutoCommit(true) to the releaseConnection() method.
I think that is more appropriate than adding it to MultiConnection, because now the class that causes the change also resets it.
I set the bug to 'pending'.
Perhaps you can check whether it is solved now? The fix is checked in the 1.7 stable branche and the 1.8 branche.
