As an example, my use case is Perl-DBD-Sybase from about three weeks

moving to a Linux-based platform I'm now not sure how to proceed. Could

You could try building it yourself:
https://github.com/cygwinports-extras/perl-DBD-Sybase
You'll need cygport, perl, and libsybdb-devel. If it weren't for that
patch, you could also just install it from cpan.
