Perhaps if you post the link command and the first 10 so errors, we'll be able to help.  Also, how was Qt compiled?  

FreeTDS is a C library.  On a Windows platform it will take the form of a COFF binary, no matter what compiler is used.  As I'm sure you know, the *compiler* per se just converts C to object code.  But it can be told to make certain assumptions with every header file about the libraries its output will be linked to.  For everything to work properly, all components in the final executable need to share a single definition of each global name e.g. strcpy(3).  If some of your code is linked to glibc and other to Microsofts's C runtime library, I'd expect problems.  

HTH.
