I think Cristian was thinking about an application error like 'out of
memory'. Anyway, Sinisa is right; Currently the only options to tell
the server that something went wrong is to either close the connection
or open a new connection and issue a 'kill' on the old connection.
net_clear is just a safety net to clear the connection from any old data.
In theory there should never be any need to call this function but...
In MySQL 4.0 there is already support for SSL; Tonu can tell us about
the current status of this.
