[Python-sybase-misc] 0.38 equivalent of MySQLdb's converters dictionary?

[Skip M. <ski...@gm...>]

MySQLdb allows the user to control mapping between Python types and Sybase
types on-the-fly using a converters argument to the connection constructor.
We need this sort of functionality at work to support some legacy Python
apps which expect dates to be represented in Unix epoch time, e.g.:

    conn = Connection(converters={DateTimeType: _dt_as_float})

I implemented this in python-sybase 0.36 but would like to stop maintaining
my own forked version of the module.  Is there some way to control this
mapping on a case-by-case basis in 0.38pre1?

Thx,
