If you're a web or FileMaker developer and need access to MySQL databases via ODBC, you probably know that there are no binary distributions of MyODBC drivers that work on an Intel Mac. The PowerPC version won't work, and just trying to compile from source won't either.
After discussions with others, we've succeeded in compiling myODBC and it works! The trick is that you need to make simple changes in three files. Change the references to odbcinst.h to iodbcinst.h in these files: util/MYODBCUtil.h, driver/myodbc3.h, and myodbcinst/myodbcinst.c.
A short article and video tutorial on the process can be found on our site.
[robg adds: Apparently this information is in a README.osx in the distribution, but many haven't found that (judging by the results of a quick net search). This thread on the macosxhints' forums also covers the problem; if you need more detail on the process, check either link.]
