Ah! I figured out the problem. IDL ignores the ODBCINI environment
variable (which is supposed to point the the global odbc.ini file) if
there is a .odbc.ini file in ones home directory. In my case, there
happened to be an empty file with that name for some reason (possibly
created as part of the database installation?). For the dataminer to
work, the ODBCINI variable must be set, and you must not have a
.odbc.ini file in one's home directory (assuming you want to use the
system wide config file). I spent most of a day trying to figure that
out :)

Any way, the dataminer seems to be getting along fine with PostgreSQL
now that I've sorted that out *knocks on wood*. Thanks to any one who
gave the problem some consideration :) Hopefully this thread might
save someone some time in the future.
