[Melbourne-pm] Connecting to a MSSQL 2005 server

We were using Freetds at work with Sybase and DBD::Sybase, that combination at
least is buggy and not very stable, so we are using the proper Sybase libs now.
DBD::Sybase does warn that it does not like freetds!  Not sure if you can use
Sybase libs with MSSQL or if there's some alternative to freetds.

For example, with DBD::Sybase and freetds, it appears that if you send an SQL
statement using bind variables having 2 or more bound to NULL, it segfaults :S
