Here's what Neal Stack (Sybase SDK engineering) had to say about this:

At first sight this doesn't appear to be linked to the test script, as,
AFAIK, we don't make use of this in the sybperl test scripts.
However, the error below:
> t/3_bcp................Argument "f2" isn't numeric in subtraction (-)

happens because the test script can't convert the column name 'f2' to
it's column number, which normally happens before the bcp/blk operation
is run, by fetching the appropriate data from the system tables (see
BCP/BCP.pm, the _gettabinfo() subroutine).
This doesn't really get us any further, but maybe there is something in
the configuration of the server that causes *something* not to work
(access to system tables?)
Are you running the test as the "sa" user?
