Wow... so I think they produce a TDS 6 ?
Or just add this token? Also I don't understand the need of 32bit from
Sybase...
I saw just now that PARAMFMT2 and ROWFMT2 use status of 32 bit... are those
the new tokens?

I'll be happy to help you. I don't know if you work using FreeTDS (is LGPL
so is correct to integrate in another project) or if you forked from early
project with a OpenLink version.
