Sorry, I confused myself. The issued freetds 0.61 does not use threading (I
think), but the CVS version does. It was unixODBC which had threading
turned on by default. When I was building the CVS version of freetds to see
if that worked I found that it used threading which I had to disable. I
only just discovered that unixODBC needed to be built without threading (on
freeBSD anyway).
