The backwards compatible answer makes me feel good since the 8.3 version of the drivers don't specify 64 bit compatibility. We'll package the latest for deployment to our users - for use on their win xp desktops.Thanks Adrian!

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.
