It's not a wrapper, it's the actual library for the cs_*() and ct_*()
functions.

libsybdb should be the same for Sybase and freetds. It is for the
DB Lib functions (DB*(), db*(), bcp*()) which is an alternative to
the CT Lib functions. In PHP terms, ext/sybase uses DB Lib
ext/sybase_ct uses CT Lib, if that helps.

Sybase's libblk (the blk_* functions) is currently in freetds' libct,
but for now they are all stub functions that just return CS_SUCCEED.
I don't think PHP uses any of those.
