Sorry; I screwed up; it was posted in alt.sources.  Here is the
blurb from the post:

Title:          iODBC Driver Manager

Version:        2.00.beta

Description:    iODBC (intrinsic Open Database Connectivity) driver manager
                is compatible with ODBC 2.0 specification and performs exactly
                same jobs of ODBC 2.0 driver manager(i.e driver loading, 
                parameters and function sequence checking, driver's function 
                invoking, etc.). Any ODBC driver works with ODBC 2.0 driver 
                manager will also work with iODBC driver manager and vice versa. 

                Applications(which using ODBC function calls) linked with 
                iODBC driver manager will be able to concurrently access 
                different data sources through suitable ODBC drivers. See
                README file for detail.
