Not really.  --with-mssql gives you the PHP mssql_* functions in the php
manual.  --with-sybase gives you the sybase_* functions and also mirrors
them as mssql_*.  So mssql_connect actually is doing a sybase_connect.
There are some functions in --with_mssql that aren't in --with-sybase
and the same the other way.  --with-sybase has been around the most and
is most tested.
