08S01 is not a standard-defined SQLSTATE. The standard says: Subclass values
associated with such classes that begin with one of the <digit>s'5', '6', '7',
'8', or '9' or one of the <simple Latin upper case letter>s 'I', 'J', 'K', 'L',
'M', 'N', 'O', 'P', 'Q', 'R', 'S', 'T', 'U', 'V', 'W', 'X', 'Y', or 'Z' are
reserved for implementation-defined conditions and are called implementation-
defined subclasses.
A web search shows that 08S01 is MySQL-specific. I don't think that that is
necessarily better than HY000, which is defined as an unspecified C API
error by the SQL standard.
About SQLGetConnectAttr, you should probably ask the ODBC mailing list
pgsql-odbc@postgresql.org
