Actually there is a primitive FreeTDS/ODBC driver, which does work with
iODBC for a driver manager.  However, it's not in much of a usable state
currently. It can process a simple query, but that's about it. 

For DBI to Sybase/MS-SQL, your best bet would be Craigs DBI driver
(available from the FreeTDS CVS repo), or getting DBD::Sybase to working
over FreeTDS/CTlib (mostly there I think, Ctlib needs a few enhancements
before it will work).
