I have done the ODBC version, and captured a dump from the traffic.
It's definitely not using TDS 4.2, and it's definitely TCP port 1433
traffic, but I don't think it's TDS 7.0 (or even recognizable 8.0 that I
can match up with the login.c code -- though I have to say, for all the
talk about rationalizing the code layout to make it more consistently
readable, I'm still having a tough time making my way through the format
of this stuff).  Perhaps a fancy version of TDS 8.x?

I'll send you the dump, James, but from a different email address (the
network my mail server is on is the target of a DOS attack right now,
and doing email on it is a bit painful at the moment).
