I apologize for being such a newbie.  I tried applying the patch
that freddy77 provided but I'm sure I botched it.  I'm just a
lowly applications DBA.

Here are the steps I took--

  1.. Copied vedi.diff.gz to the source directory (/oracle/GPD/opt/freetds).
  2.. gunzip vedi.diff.gz
  3.. patch -b -i vedi.diff
Results of the patch command:
Looks like a unified context diff.

  The next patch looks like a unified context diff.

  The next patch looks like a unified context diff.

Hunk #2 failed at line 1529.

Hunk #3 succeeded at line 1715 (offset 1 line)

Hunk #4 failed at line 2197.

Hunk #5 failed at line 2281.

3 out of 5 hunks failed: saving rejects to src/tds/query.c.rej

done


4. Performed ./configure again with the appropriate parameters.
5. make
6. make install

When I did a test with tsql after attempting the patch, I received some
errors I hadn't seen before.  So deleted the target directories and 
re-created the
unixODBC and freetds objects (using the current distribution from the 
freetds
web site -- freetds-0.65.dev.20060317).  Everything is back to where it was
before I attempted the patch (even the RPC / Data Type error in Oracle).

freddy77 -- how should the patch be applied?
