This issue has been never raised with me or the RJDBC issue tracker (it's 
beyond me why people don't ask the package maintainers).

In principle, it's bug that it returns NULL instead of FALSE (now fixed), but 
note that dbUnloadDriver() is will always fail with JDBC, because Java has no 
provision to unload classes. This is legal, since dbUnloadDriver() is declared 
as optional.

Cheers,
Simon
