src file: ext/sybase/php_sybase_db.c line 257

*charset is declared, but not initalized.

In case sybase_conect() is called without the 4th argument (BTW dox describe only 3 args), charset gets random value and may cause incorrect database responses or memory protection fault (signal 11 on my FreeBSD).

Fix: replace declaration with
*charset=NULL
