I don't see how adding a function breaks any compatibility. Microsoft
added functions; Sybased added functions. Why can't FreeTDS add
functions?

It's important that the function be well considered and well designed,
that it not overlap functionality in the standard API. But that's a
question of goodness, not compatibility.

I'll add datacopy to 0.64 unless someone convinces me the above argument
is invalid. And, Bill: Thanks for the contribution.

Cancel processing is mentioned in the TODO, but not this specific patch.

Naturally. We'll just make it part of 0.64, if that's OK by you.
