Hi,

I rebuilt freetds 0.60 as a 32 bit module (cc -taso) and tests
using apache/perl/dbd-sybase/freetds so far have been successful (!!).
I am very relieved. Since this caused memory to be re-organized,
there still exists the possibility of memory trashing, but all looks
good so far.

Thank you very much, Michael, for pointing this out!
