As far as I know, if you need a vendor supported solution, you're out of
luck.  We've had to specifically install an Intel/VMWare environment to
host some sybase requiring linux images that could otherwise have
happily run on Z.

That said, if you're willing to go open source, you can have a look at
freetds (http://www.freetds.org/).  I've had mixed results with it,
mainly in that last I tried it it didn't have 100% coverage of the ct
api's, but worked well for basic stuff.
