Summary: odbc module not portable

Initial Comment:
I'm interested in using the ODBC module with unixODBC
and/or iODBC on Linux.  I've gotten it to work, after a
fashion, with Python 2.3.3 and unixODBC 2.2.8 on SuSE
Linux 8.2.  I'd like to know how receptive you would be
to portability patches.

One category of changes conditionally compiles the
Windows-specific things: windows.h, __declspec, etc.

Another category of changes removes the few C++ things
in an otherwise C-compatible module: declarations,
comments, map(), etc.

This is mostly in odbc.cpp, but there are also a few
changes to dbi.h and dbi.cpp.

I would be happy to support that - particularly if the
changes came with a few tests - we don't have any at the
moment, and that alone would be a big improvement.
