The mystery of how the parameters work is this: if the freetds.conf file
shows as "default TDS version" to other than 4.2, then the parameter passing
with SQL server don't work. Even if your server's definition shows version
8.0, as it should for SQL Server.

I think this is a FreeTDS bug, because I see no logical relationship between
this parameter and the operation of your connection. The version associated
with your server definition should be enough. The parameters should work
regardless.

I've downloaded the latest stable release from freetds' website ver 0.63
 and compiled it with these options.

Subject: [freetds] query and tds_set_state
To: FreeTDS Development Group <freetds AT lists.ibiblio.org>
Message-ID: <1119987816.3024.10.camel@freddy>
Content-Type: text/plain

Reviewing query.c (libTDS) it appear that it contains two types of
functions
- functions to send requests (tds_submit_*, tds_cursor_*)
- functions to parse query (tds_quote*, tds_skip*...)
there isn't also a big difference from high level and low level (like
wire language query and query, just tds_submit_query do it's best to
send a query whatever token/packet it use)
I noted also that tds_cursor_* already introduce the concept of
"multiple query" (Cf "multiple query, OTL, array_out" recently) however
there is no setup, first query that enter in multiple query try to set
state to TDS_QUERYING (that is I'm sending a query). 

Test to send query is 

if (tds_set_state(tds, TDS_QUERYING) != TDS_QUERYING)
        return TDS_FAIL;

this is bad. If state was already TDS_QUERYING it try to set state, in
tds_set_state


case TDS_QUERYING:

    if (tds->state == TDS_DEAD) {
      tds_client_msg(tds->tds_ctx, tds, 20006, 9, 0, 0, "Write to SQL
Server failed.");
      return tds->state;
    } else if (tds->state != TDS_IDLE) {
      tdsdump_log(TDS_DBG_ERROR, "tds_submit_query(): state is PENDING
\n");
     tds_client_msg(tds->tds_ctx, tds, 20019, 7, 0, 1,
                    "Attempt to initiate a new SQL Server operation with
results pending.");
     return tds->state;
    }

so it give error but continue... quite bad (mainly for thread reasons).
Perhaps tds_set_state should return TDS_SUCCEED/TDS_FAIL ??
