That's the kind of error I get too. I have better luck with DBD::Sybase linked
against FreeTDS, but while that connects successfully, all rows fetched appear
to have zero columns, so that's not terribly helpful either.

This is a known problem though, so hopefully someone with spare tuits and an
understanding of all the code involved (ie. not me) will figure it out.
