  You can use the Openlink ODBC broker (basically an ODBC proxy).  You run
it the broker on a platform that does have an ODBC driver available
(the broker is available for _many_ platforms).  Then you use an Openlink
ODBC driver to connect to the broker (there are Openlink ODBC drivers
available for _many_ platforms, including Linux).  The broker just
redirects the requests for you.

  See www.openlinksw.com  Trial versions of this are available.  Basically
Openlink offers almost complete "access any database, anywhere" solutions.
