I think you are confusing libtdsS with libtds :)
I don't know what's this mysterious libtdsS but I noted in many guide
on internet this file. I think somebody years ago wrote a
configuration library for unixODBC called libtdsS. But we (I don't
remember the original author) wrote directly in FreeTDS the
configuration part so libtdsodbc is file for Setup entry too.

Mmmm... perhaps nm is your friend here... does library (libtdsodbc)
export SQLColAttribute ?
