Yes, AutoCommit => 0
when I switch the order:

$sth->rollback;
$sth->finish;
I get this error @ ->rollback :
DBD::Sybase::db rollback failed: OpenClient message: LAYER = (1) ORIGIN = (1) SEVERITY = (1) NUMBER = (49) Server ETMA_NYDEV_DS, database Message String: ct_send(): user api layer: external error: This routine cannot be called because another command structure has results pending.

Now the code looks like this:
my %attr        = (     'RaiseError' => 1,
                        'PrintError' => 1,
                        'ChopBlanks' => 1,
                        'AutoCommit' => 0,
                  );
print "establishingh connection\n";
my $dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:Sybase:server=ETMA_NYDEV_DS;database=tss_d
+s_dev2","uid","******", \%attr);

print "preparing call to PerlTest sp\n";
my $sth = $dbh->prepare("exec PerlTest2 \@RetVal = ? OUTPUT, \@SomePar
+am = ? ");

$sth->bind_param(1, undef, SQL_INTEGER);
$sth->bind_param(2, "val1", SQL_VARCHAR);

print "executing...\n";
$sth->execute;

$sth->bind_param(1, undef);
$sth->bind_param(2, "val22");

$sth->execute;  # exec again...

print "rolling back...\n";
# lets rollback

$dbh->rollback;
$sth->finish;

print "finishing...\n";
$dbh->disconnect;

close dbh;
print "----disconnected------\n";
exit 0;
