Is current dblib implementation fully binary compatible with Microsoft
one (that is under Windows) ??

I asked to myself this question some time ago. Usually windows functions
follow pascal or "stdcall" ABI however I discovered that Win32 follow C
ABI that is FreeTDS ABI (only ODBC have different ABI compatible with
platform one)... This should mean that a program that used ntwdblib.dll
can be linked (dynamically) directly to our library and get a change to
run.
