I took the liberty of standardizing the Makefile a bit to latest standards
and fix all issues I encountered:

I have addad a reinplace to use the shared libct.so library.

The libdir detection requires here the uncommon LIBDIRS and INCDIRS which I
have added. readline support works now.

I copied over /opt/csw/sybase from unstable9s to unstable10s. Unfortunately
I don't have to happen Sybase 12.5 i386 32 bit, can you provide that?

The other option would be a Solaris 10 amd64 version linked against Sybase.
Sybase 15 has been installed on unstable10x on /opt/csw/sybase but I haven't
had enough to finish this now.

IMHO the recipe looks good now, I have now packages for Sybase and FreeTDS
for Solaris 9 Sparc put in /home/experimental/sqsh. However, preserveconf for
the sqshrc is not registered properly and I need to look at that some later time.

A new version of freetds 0.91 is also still waiting for update, but the testsuite
requires a running SQL Server which I don't have right now, it would be cool
if you could respin it and run the testsuite.


Best regards
