Committed, thanks!

It's a way of finding errors.  If bsqlodbc behaves one way with with
Sybase's driver and another way with FreeTDS, it could point to a bug. 
Other applications e.g. DBD::ODBC are written to use *any* ODBC driver,
and they sometimes expose bugs, but their complexity makes it hard to
trace what's going on.  bsqlodbc is simple, making it a good debugging
tool IMHO, but since I don't know ODBC all that well and mostly use only
FreeTDS, I don't know when I'm writing good ODBC compliant code and when
I'm just adapting to FreeTDS's implementation.  

Besides, before I tell you we have a bug, I think it's good to check
another vendor's behavior.  ;-)

It would probably be better to test with Microsoft's driver, but I'm down
to zero Window boxes at home and no time for such things at work.
