Dave,

I really can't tell, without configuring what you have and you seem to be
unable to describe your versions, etc, nor can you update to the latest
DBD::ODBC...so....what I will conclude is:

It *may* be a bug in DBD::ODBC.
It *may* be a bug in FreeTDS
It *may* be a bug in unixODBC (sorry Nick!)

It *may* be anything, but:
a) isql uses different ODBC calls than DBD::ODBC does to retrieve data.
b) I don't know which version of FreeTDS you are using, but *I* had problems
with 0.53 and DBD::ODBC.  The ODBC layer in FreeTDS didn't work well enough
for my tests to pass.  There is a newer version (0.60) fully released and
that *may* be better, but I haven't had time to look at it.

If I had to *guess* at this point: FreeTDS, the core protocol layer is
probably fine.  It's probably in DBD::ODBC and/or FreeTDS's ODBC layer.
It's probably *not* unixODBC, but again, since you can't tell which versions
and you are "a bit hazy" on what you did, makes it more difficult to
pinpoint the problem.
