What is the difference between tds_socket::current_results and
tds_socket::res_info?  They're both TDSRESULTINFO structures.   Why two?


tsql uses current_results and correctly fetches PRINTed data.
dbnumcols() uses res_info, and gets the metadata wrong:

echo "select 2 as two Print 'hello'" | bsqldb -U$U -P$P -S$S
...
        Changed language setting to us_english.
        two
-----------
          2
1 rows affected
        two
-----------
@@rowcount not available

sqsh also works, so this is a db-lib problem.
