TRACE is not a FreeTDS ODBC driver attribute.  It belongs to the Driver
Manager unixODBC.  Other DMs might or might not support it.  

FWIW, the one time I tried to use TRACE, I failed, too.  I might not have
had sufficient rights on that particular box, or maybe there was some
other magic I didn't know about....
