Comment (by ryandesign):

 Replying to [comment:5 ryandesign]:
 > We have other ports offering both openssl and gnutls variants. We could
 do that here, even make one of them the default. Which one we choose as
 default might depend on which of them results in a distributable binary,
 in the event that only one of them does.

 When updating the port to 1.00.1 I
 [changeset:3a7eabce2a8626bc9da03d9e7f4fcd5d918a4b2b/macports-ports added
 the openssl dependency] but that made the port nondistributable.
 When updating the port to 1.2.3 I
 [changeset:33a1c2eead634f13e0a6cf12da19ea02e54f79b2/macports-ports
 switched it to gnutls] to avoid that.
 Variants could still be added to allow the user to choose openssl instead
 of gnutls if there is a strong desire for that.

 > Changed TDS version from 8.0 to 7.3 per documentation
 ​http://www.freetds.org/userguide/choosingtdsprotocol.htm#TAB.PROTOCOL.BY.PRODUCT

 That was handled in #51636.
