Not sure. The first thing I'm thinking of, is removing the datestyle
support, and having the driver set a datestyle to one (probably ISO)
during the connect. AFAIK, the ODBC driver uses a similar scheme?

This should reduce the size of the driver a little, and remove the number
of places where this error could occur.

If we still have problems, how about an internal datestyle for use by
interfaces only (like JDBC & ODBC)?
