Sorry, no quoting for context, I seem not to have received the last email to 
the bug.  

No fixing SQLGetData will not fix the driver properly.

The current version of the driver in debian is broken in all cases where a 
*SQLLEN is used as a index in the manner that SQLGetData uses it.

Among many other things the 8.02.200 driver fixes this, although from some 
other references I have seen, the new version is significantly more than just 
64 bit cleanliness fixes.  As such, I fully understand why it can't be added 
into etch at this time.


From what I can tell, an alternative is to use the PostgreSQL driver that is 
packaged in the unixodbc source.  This driver seems to be 64-bit clean, even 
though it is not shipped in a debian binary package. 

This is an equally unlikely option to get a working odbc driver for postgresql 
into Etch though I guess.  Even though it is a driver based on the psqlodbc 
upstream source, this particular version hasn't had any testing.
