What's the AFS ACL on the $SYABSE directory?

Since I first posted, we moved perl and sybase to local files to take
AFS out of the equation.  The sybase home directory has world rwx
permission.  Three other things:

(1) When I run the thing locally (not thru the web server) it compiles
(which you would expect because it did run under Apache as well).

(2) When commenting out the "use" statement, the program compiles and I
can print the environment variable, which is correct (and set before the
use statement)

(3) I just switched to the use statement from CTlib to DBlib and it
compiles fine (I did this because other DBlib apps are running fine).
