Right - I've made fixes to DBD::Sybase that reflect this name change. I
haven't done the same thing for sybperl yet, but I will do that RSN.

Hmmm - normally these libraries should have been found (or rather, their
-lsybXXX equivalents.)

Edit Makefile.PL again (the one in CTlib/Makefile.PL) and change the
$lib_string line (around line 60) from

    $lib_string = "-L$SYBASE/lib -lct -lcs -ltcl -lcomn -lintl -lblk";
to
    $lib_string = "-L$SYBASE/lib -lsybct -lsybcs -lsybtcl -lsybcomn
-lsybintl -lsybblk";

and see if that fixes the problem with "make test".
