Sorry, the last command I tried was “./configure --without-libpq --with-unixodbc=/usr/local” and that is when I received the error about not being able to create executables.
I must admit I’m not entirely sure why I’m using “—without-libpq”, I am following internal company documentation that was left by someone who no longer works here. I can only assume there was a reason for this.

I can provide the contents of config.log if required but it is rather large.
I have unixODBC version 2.2.11 installed. odbc_config –version confirms this.
Any thoughts/help would be greatly appreciated.
What output you get for following: 1) which odbc_config 2) odbc_config --libs
Also did you try to export following and then building psqlODBC: export LDFLAGS=<output of #2 above>
for example: # export LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/lib
Also you could add --with-unixodbc=/usr/local in ./configure.
By the way any particular reason to use –without-libpq option?
