Most likely what happens is the output buffer (tds->out_buf) fills up and
that triggers it to be flushed so the final packet indicator is not set.
Then when tds_flush_packet is called there is nothing in the output buffer
so it discards it.  interesting. I suppose the flush needs to be moved
so that it happens when byte 513 (on a 512 packet size) comes in as
opposed to byte 512.

Of course I could be totally wrong (since I'm not presently looking at 
the sources). I'll look into it this weekend.
