Not sure what your problem is exactly but the following compile
options work for me for psqlodbc-7.2.5 on OSX Server 10.3.x. There
are two files that don't normally exist, that you must create,
/Library/ODBC/odbc.ini, /Library/ODBC/odbcinst.ini

./configure --enable-pthreads --with-iodbc
make
sudo make install

note create the following files in the locations shown after
installing the psqlodbc driver
if they already exist, just add the contents as necessary

/Library/ODBC/odbc.ini
