libphp4.so has a symbol -- dbdead -- it wants the linker to resolve.  The
linker should find that symbol in PREFIX/lib/libsybdb.so.1.0 as produced by
FreeTDS 0.60.  (Boy, do I wish we'd gotten this version stuff right for the
release.)

True.

Not so.  PHP is looking for the lowercase form.  Or do I misunderstand?

Just to be clear, this is db-lib we're speaking of, not ct-lib.
