Not so, Microsoft broke big endian clients with respect to datetime and
money fields. So, I'm wondering if they fixed it in a later service pack.

Yes, it is bug 57352. They fixed it in SP3 released in December.

Now the question is, how do I tell what version of SQL Server someone is using my app with? This is a pretty important bug to try to avoid.

Any ideas?
