Please try with MakeMaker 5.03, which is available on CPAN. As I
convinced myself, 5.03 writes a Makefile. There IS some mysterous
magic going on with the Version number. The generated Makefile has the
line

MM_VERSION = 2.0

instead of 5.03. Other than that I could not test it, as I don't have
Sybase at hand right now. Will look into that during the weekend. Let
me know, how it goes.
