As far as I know the ODBC drivers are backwards compatible. The question is
where you intend to load the driver? If you want it on Solaris the *.zip
versions will not work as they represent MSI packages for use in Windows. You
will need to get the tarballs located in the src directory here:

http://www.postgresql.org/ftp/odbc/versions/src/

When you untar them there will be a docs/ with a unix-compilation.html file to
help with building.
