The AutoCommit is off. Any other database operations are now
transactional even if they were AutoCommitting in the past.

Which I suspect might also be the cause of the other problems that
you've reported with monitoring in Spacewalk 1.4. Sadly, I was not
able to find the time needed to investigate that theory more. If you
have a Spacewalk server where you could check it, that would be great.
