That's interesting.... the last time I tried to compile the myODBC drivers
from source on OS X I failed completely. I couldn't seem to find out how
the folks at Oracle do it.

I realized as this thread was developing that while technically I am
running psqlODBC on OS X, MacPorts is really a completely different animal.
I guess that is the central curse of MacPorts --- it generally all works
well together, but you need to use the whole kit and kaboodle.
The one success I have had with iODBC and OS X was with HP Vertica. It took
a lot of scouring of the documentation provided by HP, but in the end I do
finally have them working, at lease from Python.
