This is a bug in CTlib.xs. There are a couple of warn() calls
in the ct_connect() function which should probably not be
there.

You can ignore them by doing something like this:

local $SIG{__WARN__} = sub { ; };  #ignore warnings...
$x = new Sybase::CTlib 'user', 'password', "DUMMY", "cgi_test";
if(!defined($x)) {
     return;               # NOTE: this will produce a correct HTML
trailer
}


I will probably correct this for the next release...
