Great, be sure to also check Sybase 12.5 CTLIB. A lot of servers and tools
still run with Sybase 12.5. Or, you should write in the documentation, that
it would be enough, to make copies of your Sybase 12.5 DLLS, with "syb" in
the name (this is documented on Sybase homepage and the CTLIB documentation,
but for the other way round: A .cmd script, that copies all DLLs to be able
to run programs compiled with the old DLL names).

If I can help, I have the Sybase 15 and 12.5 CTLIB headers and LIBS here,
for some first tests. We have contacts to Sybase Germany (we are the biggest
*educational* customer in Germany, see
http://www.sybase.com/detail?id=1052607), maybe we can help. If using CTLIB,
you are also able to use the Sybase Data Warehouse (Sybase IQ). I never got
this working correctly with FreeTDS.

On the other hand: I prefer to use ODBC on windows and also UNIX, this makes
life a little bit simplier.
