I'm having some trouble with FreeTDS/tsql on my FreeBSD system, hoping
that somebody else has seen this already. I had to update some ports
over the weekend (including FreeTDS), and now tsql gives me a core
dump whenever I exit. I can connect okay, and as long as I never quit
tsql there's no problem.

Below I have the output of my test script. uname -a, tsql -C, my
FreeTDS config file, and a sample tsql run. I haven't found anything
on Google, either. Is this just a tsql problem, (i.e. FreeTDS is fine,
but tsql dumps core)? Does anybody have suggestions for things I
should check?

TIA,
Jim Vanderveen
