About lang_ct_param: this test never worked. The simple reason is that
this function use a Sybase version of TDS_LANGUAGE token. MSSQL support
language only in language packet so you have to use prepared statement
to use parameters (or build a string, possible but not good for
performance). Current code use sp_executesql but is broken. Calling
sp_executesql is a good solution but require that all parameters have a
correct name. For example you can call sp_executesql with 

EXEC sp_executesql, N'insert into test(i) values(@i)', N'@i INT', 123

If you set parameters without names tds_submit_query_params build a
parameter string (the N'@i INT' above) without names (N' INT') that's
wrong... The solution should be parse query string and find parameters
('insert into test(i) values(@i)' -> @i) and set in params parameters.
Also you should skip 'declare @name type' statements...
