Why not just do
$db =& $this->db->conn;
and then just proceed with the above? It's pretty close to the total 
length of adding $db as an function argument if you consider that 
caller must also type the code to pass the DB handle.

After saying that, yes, the singleton pattern sounds like a valid 
alternative.
