:(

I did some work with ODBC to get it building for Unix boxes and to work
with Applixware. But afaik my environment does not allow me to build and
test other new features, so I can be of only limited help here.

That doesn't excuse my taking so long with Zoltan's fixes, but a new
ODBC maintainer is clearly needed. He/she would probably need some
familiarity with Windows tools such as Access to be most effective.

Zoltan, I've applied your patches to my tree, and will get them into the
development sources asap.
