* Problem with ODBC in current CVS?

I've been trying to get StarOffice 5.2 working with PostgreSQL grabbed
directly from CVS, and have been having no end of problems (I'm sure I
had this working with StarOffice 5.1 months ago, but I don't remember
how, alas). (It probably doesn't help that I don't really understand
what ODBC is doing.)
Anyway, using the iodbc driver manager and libpsqlodbc, I seem to be
getting close. StarOffice connects but shows no tables. From the
libpsqlodbc log file, it appears to be trying this:
select relname,usename,relhasrules from pg_class,pg_user
where relkind = 'r' and relname !~ '^pg_|^dd_' and
relname !~ '^xinv[0-9]+' and
int4out(usesysid) = int4out(relowner)order by relname
which returns no rows when I try it by hand. These int4out's look
iffy to me. Aren't usesysid and relowner int2? Why does it need to
do any conversion anyway? Why not just usesysid=relowner? What am I
missing?

Hmm. If I remove the int4out calls from src/interfaces/odbc/info.c,
then things work. Is this the right thing to do, or have I got
something broken elsewhere which I should fix?
(The regressions pass, BTW, and I'm using a pretty generic box: Debian
unstable, i386, gcc-2.95.2.)

They're pretty bogus all right. I think usesysid=relowner should
work fine. Try making the appropriate change in
src/interfaces/odbc/info.c and let us know how it goes...

I thought so. Fix applied to CVS...
