+ In Windows, the DBLIB from Microsoft is used. Functions that return a
+ column name are based on the <literal>dbcolname()</literal> function
+ in DBLIB. DBLIB was developed for SQL Server 6.x where the max
+ identifier length is 30. For this reason, the maximum column length
+ is 30 characters. On platforms where FreeTDS is used (Linux), this is
