for module Sybase::CTlib:
/usr/local/src/perl/sybperl-2.15/CTlib/../blib/arch/auto/Sybase/CTlib/CTl
ib.so: 
undefined symbol: ct_poll at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/i686-linux/DynaLoader.pm
line 229.

FreeTDS exports ct_poll():

$ nm /usr/local/lib/libct.a |grep poll
000029a8 T _ct_poll

so I suspect a path problem.  Perhaps your old installation was in
/usr/local/freetds and the new one is in /usr/local (the default prefix
changed with 0.60).  Or you need to tell perl where freetds is, to get it
linked in?
