Ahh...  It does fail - it returns a status code from the stored
procedure of -6.  I have no idea what that means...

What I did discover though is that the problem is transaction related.
If I knew a lot more about isolation levels and how they interact with
stored procedures I might be able to give a more meaningful answer.

Try this to shed some light on the problem:

import Sybase
Sybase._ctx.debug = 1
db = Sybase.connect('SYBASE', 'sa', '', 'pubs2')

def test(table):
    print "Test table:", table
    c = db.cursor()
    c.execute('select * from '+table)
    c.fetchall()
    c.close()
    db.commit()
    cmd = "sp_helpindex %s" % table
    print db.execute(cmd)

test('authors')
