Actually, its LF to CR/LF when going from the database to odbc. When going the
other way (odbc->database), it converts CR/LF to LF. The reason is for
Microsoft from what I remember. It might have even been in the odbc spec (I
can't quite remember). It probably shouldn't do it if its being run on Unix
though?

Good Job, you found a bug alright! It should be strlen(ptr). When I tested
it, I didn't have newlines so it worked ok.
I'll put it in for the next release.
