Better than hope: analyze.  List the features of FreeTDS  and of
Microsoft's ODBC driver that matter to you.  If the union equals the
intersection, one is redundant, else not.  

It's certainly news -- and welcome news, at that -- when Microsoft
offers a Linux driver.  It also validates (part of) what we've
been doing all these years.
