I suspect your problem would be fixed if the file descriptors representing your database connections had the close-on-exec flag set (man fcntl for details). It would be nice if the autoreload code could set all file descriptors to close-on-exec before restarting, but I don't know if there's a way to get a list of all open file descriptors.
