Question

So I\'ve got a ListView (using a ListActivity) that I\'m populating from a SQLiteDatabase. I\'m trying to attach the ID (PK) of the row t

You probably should get the cursor from the adapter. This way if your cursor gets replaced you are still are still getting a valid cursor.

@Override
    protected void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long id) {
       Cursor cursor =  adapter.getCursor();
       cursor.moveToPosition(position);
       String id = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex("primary key field name in database");
       Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "ID=" + id, 1).show();
    } 

NOTE : your adapter must be declared as a SimpleCursorAdapter other wise you should downcast it.
