Why are you guys so reluctant to make such a small change to include better MS SQL Server support?

Can you imagine the (correct, IMO) response from the PHP guys to a request to add better MSSQL support to the Sybase extension? I bet it would be "No, the functionality is already there in the MSSQL extension, use that instead". Even if the response is "Sure, yeah, we'll do that right away", that doesn't solve the problem for Ubuntu users now: it would take ages for the change to filter down to an Ubuntu release.

It would be so easy to fix this bug properly; what's the big deal with insisting that the Sybase extension ought to be sufficient?
