Both will be supported.
Sybperl (Sybase::CTlib or Sybase::DBlib) is closer to the "normal"
Sybase way of doing things, and is more mature (development started in
1990!).
DBD::Sybase is more recent and therefore a little more prone to bugs
(IMHO).
Which one you choose will mostly depend on whether you need
portability of your perl code to other databases (the SQL will likely
not be portable anyway if you use stored procs).
