This is the bug formally known as 'the dbm conflict' :-) There is a switch
--enable-dbmfix for freetds that will rename dbopen() to tdsdbopen()
however this requires that PHP or whatever (Perl does it too) call
tdsdbopen() instead of dbopen().  I've been thinking about putting a patch
together for PHP, but have so far been too lazy ;-)
