You could test for its existence, even without a specific path using
AC_CHECK_HEADER and AC_CHECK_LIB. (Just like any other lib/header).

This would mean unixODBC would be autodetected on Redhat systems that
include it (its packaged with the distribution).

Of course if the user specifies a location to configure then that's the
one to use.

Cheers,
