Putting the 'cybs.ini' file in my main catalog directory solved this 
problem.  Put it in the directory where your 'catalog.cfg' file is.

After playing with this some more, I think this line should be changed to:

'invoice_number'  => $actual->{mv_order_number} || $actual->{order_id},

This works for CyberSource and should not interfere with any other 
Business Online Payment modules.
