FreeTDS includes the following binaries. Here is a URL of their description.

http://www.freetds.org/userguide/usefreetds.htm

∴ tree ports/i686-darwin11.2.0/freetds/0.91/bin
ports/i686-darwin11.2.0/freetds/0.91/bin
├── bsqldb
├── datacopy
├── defncopy
├── fisql
├── freebcp
├── osql
├── tdspool
└── tsql

We would like to hook into rake-compiler to include these in native gem. Once this is done, I propose using:

1) datacopy/freebcp - From the ActiveRecord Warehouse ETL project or any bulk copy tasks.
2) tsql - With a patch to the adapter to for the `db:console` rake task.
