FreeTDS creates a dump file if the TDSDUMP environment variable is set.  If
you did something like "export TDSDUMP=tdsdump.out", that would explain the
file.  

You can also define a dump file in freetds.conf.  IIRC, 0.53 didn't use that
feature.

Where are you referring to?  I think examination of the code will show
there's no default dump file name.  :)
