I've tested FreeTDS on Linux/Alpha before, and have just run a quick
test using 0.61pre1 and DBD::Sybase (0.93). I had no problems here; if
there is a specific test I can run that he knows to cause problems, I'm
happy to give it a shot here. However, my build logs for 0.60 show no
64bit-specific errors, which makes me think this is somehow a Tru64
problem, not a 64-bit problem.
