Success..

I thought that I had to change the DBBOOL to an DBINT, however when I  
went back and looked at the files that I compiled to get to work, I  
remembered that it was a fresh extract, other than one change.  I did  
have to add the && !defined(OBJC_BOOL_DEFINED) so that the bool would  
not be defined twice in a different way in the sybdb.h header file  
(which I had done before and it still did not work).  The only other  
thing I did was ./configure differently.  I think the first time all I  
did was ./configure and let the defaults do their work.  The second  
time I found some options online that were recommended.

The result was
./configure --with-tdsver=8.0 --enable-msdblib --disable-libiconv -- 
disable-odbc --disable-apps --disable-server --disable-pool was the  
configure that let it work with cocoa.  I'm not sure what was  
different from my initial install, but nonetheless it worked :)

Thanks again for your help.  And I'm actually relieved that there  
doesn't need to be a change from DBBOOL to DBINT.
