I think it will be fine (although my actual project is 64-bit) - but I can do
the tests I need with this.

By the way, I downloaded the 0.82 patched version, (
freetds-0.82.1.dev.20100304) and this one doesn't even compile.
I get an 'error C2036: SQLPOINTER: unknown size. Project: FreeTDS, File:
odbc.c, Line: 4721.
Up to now I was working with the 'stable' release, which I guess is unpatched.

Thanks,
Harry
