It terminates as soon as the query has run out of rows.

It's a PHP 5 feature called "Iterators" -- that is PDO queries are
returned as objects that, although they are not arrays, can be treated as
arrays in a foreach loop. The solution would work equally well using PHP 4
constructs, but the code doesn't look as neat.
