You could download the binary from ftp sites.
Go to http://www.postgresql.org/ and select a FTP mirror.
You would find the latest driver
  odbc/versions/psqlodbc-07_01_0004.zip.

No. The driver made with --with-odbc doesn't work with
M$ ODBC driver manager. It is designed to work with
iODBC driver manager. I don't know if iODBC works under
Windows. Even though iODBC works, few(no ?) applications
know iODBC under Windows.
