ct-lib relies on server-side support to determine the SQL datatype of the
placeholder variable. Sybase provides such support, Microsoft does not.
Thus ct-lib placeholders don't work with Microsoft servers and TDS 7.0+.

Well, "supported" has a very limited meaning in an open source project.
I'm sorry you were misled . There's no way api_status.txt can express the
status accurately in its current form. I'll add a note to BUGS.
