Nik/Rafel/Stefanos:

The patch (assuming we're talking about the same one) has been applied
to the CVS archives as of yesterday (thanks, Craig!).  Could each of you
test to see whether the problems you've been experiencing with dates
have been resolved using a driver built from the latest sources?  If any
of you needs to have the driver built for you let me know and I'll mail
you a copy in a private email (let me know whether you need JDBC1 or
JDBC2).

If you pull down a pre-built jar from ftp://freetds.internetcds.com, be
aware that only freetds_jdbc.snapshot.jar.1_0 has been built fresh; the
other jars are older than the latest sources.

Thanks.
