Well, so you are using a PHP script with a stack like

PHP <=> php_odbc <=> ODBC <=> FreeTDS <=> sql server

I suspect a bug in one of the first 4... probably from php_odbc to
FreeTDS.

I would
- simplify script at minimun
- be able to execute script from command line
- enale core (ulimit -c unlimited)
- launch script (php script.php)
- load core with gdb (gdb $(which php) core.xxx)
- dump stack (bt)

Currently I don't have a x64 environment to play with :)
