I was getting the same thing w/ FreeTDS 0.53 (under HPUX 11.11).

After reading thru the mailing list archives and seeing a similar
problem, I pulled down FreeTDS 0.60 and rebuilt.  I then
rebuilt/installed DBD:Sybase 0.95 against 0.60.  I have attempted to
redirect everything against the new FreeTDS (for example, renamed
the 0.53 dir in case something I missed is lurking).

I'm still getting:

./test_DBI.pl
/usr/lib/dld.sl: Unresolved symbol: cs_ctx_global (code) from
/opt/local/apps/perl5.8/lib/site_perl/5.8.0/PA-RISC2.0/auto/DBD/Sybase/Sybase.sl
IOT trap (core dumped)

nm 
/opt/local/apps/perl5.8/lib/site_perl/5.8.0/PA-RISC2.0/auto/DBD/Sybase/Sybase.sl
 | grep ctx
         U cs_ctx_global
         U cs_ctx_global

I must still have something out of sync somewhere, but I haven't
pinned it down, yet.  I thought 0.60 FTDS would take care of this,
but it didn't (so far).  I'll keep looking to see where I've
overlooked the obvious.  My problem seems to be similar to what the
Solaris folks were having.

thanks,
Jerry
