I'm working closely to support Oracle connection using FreeTDS and ODBC.
I discover a bug in recent money_to_string change. We converted from
money to 64bit int using this line (only under big-endian)

mymoney = *((TDS_INT8*) money);

however sometimes money was only 32bit aligned causing a Bus Error (on
SPARC for instance). Patch applied in both 0.62.2 (0.62 CVS version) and
0.63 (CVS HEAD). How want to test Oracle connection must use CVS version
and --enable-developing option.
