We've noticed on multiple machines as well that JDBC-ODBC is effectively
broken in Win32 JDK 1.2.2 (with hotspot and without), meaning, it will
give the segment violations, or a kernel crash, when you try to access a
SQL Server 7.0 database through the sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver.  We've
sent in bug reports on this but haven't heard a response.  For now we're
stuck using JDK 1.2.1 until the FreeTDS is a little more robust for
production use.
