Roles -- do Sybase and Informix have a similar implementation?

I am currently designing a database where the application needs to have a
set of permissions for a user.  I would like to be able to use the Oracle 7
roles to do this.  However, there is the chance that the application will need
to be ported to Sybase and Informix.  Can anyone comment on whether
those DBMSs have support for roles, and if so, how close it is to what
Oracle has?



Thanks for your help,
