Error description

• When using SSL security, if the connect string contains
  
  "security=SSL" and omitting the SQLDisconnect() step from the
  SSL enabled application, the program will dump core on exit in
  the
  libgsk7ssl_64.so library.  If the connect string does not
  contain the "security=SSL" clause, then the program does not
  dump core.  If SQLDisconnect() is used, the core dump is
  not seen.
  

Local fix

• The core dump is not seen if using SQLDisconnect() in the
  application.
