Is this a feature of the main Postgres configuration also? Has anyone
else had trouble or success with Sparc Solaris for the main
distribution? I'm not aware of anything different in the ODBC stuff.

What changes? I'm running the same version of iodbc and am not aware of
any file incompatibilities, which makes it hard to guess at your
problems.
