Title : freshen
Usage : $flag = Bio::DB::GFF->freshen_ace;
Function: Refresh internal acedb handle
Returns : flag if correctly freshened
Args : none
Status : Public
ACeDB has an annoying way of timing out, leaving dangling database
handles. This method will invoke the ACeDB reopen() method, which
causes dangling handles to be refreshed. It has no effect if you are
not using ACeDB to create ACeDB objects.
