I'm also watching out for ODBC connectivity. In this context
I saved a posting from a mailing list recently. Maybe this is
of interest, though it may not exactly be what you are
looking for.

|Title: iODBC Driver Manager
|
|Version: 2.00.beta
|
|Description: iODBC (intrinsic Open Database Connectivity) driver manager
| is compatible with ODBC 2.0 specification and performs exactly
| same jobs of ODBC 2.0 driver manager(i.e driver loading,
| parameters and function sequence checking, driver's function
| invoking, etc.). Any ODBC driver works with ODBC 2.0 driver
| manager will also work with iODBC driver manager and vice versa.
|
| Applications(which using ODBC function calls) linked with
| iODBC driver manager will be able to concurrently access
| different data sources through suitable ODBC drivers. See
| README file for detail.
