I think I found the reason why it didn't work -- seems
like it was our SQL Server 11.03 instance. Maybe it is
just broken. LD_LIBRARY_PATH or libraries order change
had not make the difference..
But the funny thing is that DB library works fine with
it..
So, I changed SYBASE home to another version (11.5)
and everything works OK now, though database is still
11.03 (appears to be back-compatible?). 

Michael, I really appreciate your help, as everyone
else, I guess.

Deep regards,
Andrei.
