I was (a) waiting to see what Peter thought about it, and (b) wondering
whether you'd actually tested to see that the built ODBC driver does
something useful. I'm not eager to risk a post-RC1 change that could
conceivably break other platforms. Moving ODBC on UW from "doesn't
compile" to "compiles" isn't enough of a reason to take the risk.
You need to demonstrate that it moves all the way to "works".

It'd probably be a good idea to discuss the change on pgsql-odbc,
too, just in case anyone interested is hanging out there and not here.

regards, tom lane
