The PostGIS connector should close the mapserver connection when the
msPOSTGISLayerClose()  method is called.

Your problem might be caused by mapserver not closing the layer.  It
could  also be caused by PostgreSQL not properly closing down in the
middle of a transaction (this shouldnt be a problem).
