Sybase < 12.5 will throw an error on the create statement, and will
probably fail on the insert as well (though I don't have a server
running here right now that I can test it on).

Sybase >= 12.5 will handle the 1024 limit with no problems, although you
will get a warning message if the total width of the table could exceed
the page size (2k by default, but configurable up to 16k).
