If you install the odbc driver from the source distribution then the said
headers are installed into /usr/local/pgsql/include/iodbc/*.h. So if you
blindly do -I/usr/local/pgsql/include and #include "iodbc/isqlext.h" you
won't find isql.h (or worse, the wrong one). I think this is the remnant
of an improper import of the odbc driver into out our source tree way back
when.

Perhaps we should not install ours at all in that case? The iodbc ones
seem better maintained and you need to have iodbc anyway.
