TDS 7.0 is little endian only.  Which means that the client (AIX in this
case) needs to reverse all the data going and coming from the server.
Somewhere along the line the tds_put_*() calls were 'fixed' and no longer
support non-native byte orders.  :-/

I'll need to look through the logs and see whose changes these were but
methinks we need to set this at the connection level anyway, so that we
can support different byte orders for different connections.  This would
handle the date hack for SQL Server 7.0 as well if we pretended to be
little endian
