Chanching this structure or getting rid of --enable-msdblib, is not
required (IMHO). What I'm looking for is a way to configure the client
(PHP) to behave the same agains different libraries. And with FreeTDS
returning two different structures and values depending on compile options
it would be nice to be able to have the client code handle this
transparent for the PHP user.
