If you would, let's please begin with a TDSDUMP log.  It will contain
the TDS packet dumps and relevant information about how the client
interpreted what arrived from the server.  Not least, it will show the
versions of the library and TDS protocol, and the datatypes presented.
If the library is indeed crashing, which should never happen with 0.91,
it is because it's confused about something arriving from the server.  

Reading a tcpdump log *might* be necessary, but usually not.  Usually
the next step, if the log isn't definitive, is to introduce more
logging and/or get a backtrace at the point of failure.
