I've run into the same compile failure using php-4.3.7 and freetds-0.62.3:

In file included from /servers/build/php-4.3.7/ext/mssql/php_mssql.c:33:
/servers/build/php-4.3.7/ext/mssql/php_mssql.h:41: redefinition of `SHORT'
/servers/lib/freetds-0.62.3/include/sybdb.h:117: `SHORT' previously declared here
make: *** [ext/mssql/php_mssql.lo] Error 1

I was able to get it to compile by removing the following lines in ext/mssql/php_mssql.h starting on line 40:

#ifndef SHORT
typedef short SHORT;
#endif

Please note that in php-4.3.6 this wasn't a problem and everything compiled fine.

This bug has been fixed in CVS.

Snapshots of the sources are packaged every three hours; this change
will be in the next snapshot. You can grab the snapshot at

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better.
