Connections should still be reused only when the userID is the same, so
no bind should occur; if it doesn't it's a bug, not a stretching of a
feature.  What could happen is that since in some cases it occurred to
have long, unreasonable response times during binds, I placed a timeout
on bind and, after few cycles the operation is abandoned and a new bind
is tried on the same connection.  This could be the bug,
