Thanks for the advice, which got me thinking along the right lines even though 
it was PHP that was confused about headers, not apache. (Apache is not 
interested in sybdb.h directly, as it loads php as a dynamic module.)

My problem is that I didn't change my ./configure line for php when freetds 
started installing itself to /usr/local not /usr/local/freetds. I guess it was 
getting the .so from one place and the .h from the other.

I doubt even the FAQ can save me from my own stupidity.
