Exiting gracefully from Sybase in a perl CGI

I am currently using ths Perl5 Sybase::DBLib module to query a Sybase
database from a CGI script. The trouble is that when the CGI is stopped
(by the user) while it is querying the database the select process does
not die but hangs around in a "lock sleep" status. When this happens a
lot,
it leads to database performance problems. Does anyone know of a module I
could use to catch the STOP signal and gracefully close the Sybase
connection?
I'd appreciate any replies by email.
