One work around that some people have used for this is to rename dbopen in
freetds to tdsdbopen() or something similar in src/dblib/dblib.c and
include/sybdb.h and then modify php to call tdsdbopen() instead in
functions/sybase.c

If I get time this weekend I'll patch this into freetds and submit the
workaround to the PHP people.  Michael, would you be interested in adding
a workaround option to sybperl? I'll add something like
'--enable-dbm-conflict-fix' to freetds' configure.

Cheers,

Brian
