Ouch, I wouldn't see how this could work. Running the Microsoft
drivers together with the whole Microsoft ODBC manager under Wine

it is safe to assume that that would require quite some work in Wine
before this could possibly work, not to talk about license issues.

This is totally not true and it is right there in documentation. (User guide)
All you do is install mdac downloadable from Microsoft.com, or any MS
product like Office. Than run odbcad32.exe to set your DSNs. that's
it, works like a charm and is the only known way to man to connect to
an MSSQL server from Unix.
After you install MDAC, you can also install Oracle's drivers for
windows but that is a bit more tricky, just like on windows.
Also search archives it was there before.
