If I thought we would go another year before 0.61, I'd say we should include
your fixes, Nick, because the UG says you can (and configure allows you to)
use "--with-tdsver=8.0".  

I think our next release will be this year, and there will be a lot of
changes, so I think it's OK to go with what we've got.  If we ever get a
properly engineered tarball, that is. :/

I'll add a note to README.0.60 about this, to forestall confusion.
