That's not DBD::Sybase - that's Sybase::DBlib, part of the sybperl
package... dbopen() is defined in libsybdb.a (which freetds also
provides), but in this case you *may* be running into another problem
as perl tends to link in -ldb, which *also* defines a dbopen()
function.
Try building DBD::Sybase instead of sybperl, and see how that goes
(but use DBD::Sybase 0.91, as 0.93 doesn't build with FreeTDS at the
moment.
