Installing and trying DBD::Sybase 1.07

I've downloaded and tried DBD::Sybase 1.07 on Mac OS X 10.4.5.

You need to install Open Client 12.5.3, otherwise you'll run into
trouble.
First you'll need to fix things like
"Symbol not found: ___CFConstantStringClassReference"

You can fix it by adding options such as
-framework CoreFoundation
to the lines dealing with link edition in Makefile.PL

but then you'll run into
Symbol not found: _cs_conv_mult
which seems to arise from Sybase libraries.

In the end: install Open Client 12.5.3 which seems to be "framework
compliant" and
with all the references in order. You'll be able to smoothly build,
test and install DBD::Sybase
with no mingling at all with Makefile.PL

By the way, with DBI 1.50

Nice job Mr. Peppler
