Crumb.  This is going to be a slog.  

Bill Thompson, do you have any suggestions?  

I'll send you a patch in the next day or so that adds a bunch of logging
statements, so we can narrow down what's happening.

Oh, that's OK.  tsql is reporting the environment, not the freetds.conf

and it can't be fixed without a willing guinea pig.
