This is an issue with many unix ports to Mac OS X. Basically, .so 
files won't work. You need a dylib or a framework.

I've got a framework working fine, but only with libtds and libdb, no 
odbc or ctlib. Once I get those added to it and working, I was 
planning on adding it to the cvs repository.

Brian & others -- suggestions? A pb project is a directory with a 
couple of files in it. Where should I put it? Should we have a folder 
for platform-specific stuff?

I don't know enough about autoconf, make, etc. to actually make the 
changes to compile a dylib, though I've done it by hand before. 
Looking in my notes, here are the commands I used inside each src 
sub-directory. you can try similar commands until you get a dylib 
created, then stick it in the same place as the .so files (changing 
the paths to the libtool commands to be the paths where you are 
installing them).

libtool -install_name /usr/local/freetds/lib/libtds.dylib -dynamic 
-current_version 1.0.0 -compatibility_version 1.0.0 -dylib_file 
libtds.dylib:/usr/local/freetds/lib/libtds.dylib -lz -lc -o 
libtds.dylib mem.o token.o util.o login.o read.o write.o convert.o 
numeric.o config.o /usr/lib/libcc_dynamic.a


libtool -install_name /usr/local/freetds/lib/libsybdb.dylib -dynamic 
-current_version 1.0.0 -compatibility_version 1.0.0 -dylib_file 
libsybdb.dylib:/usr/local/freetds/lib/libsybdb.dylib -lz -lc -o 
libsybdb.dylib bcp.o dblib.o dbutil.o rpc.o xact.o 
/usr/lib/libcc_dynamic.a /usr/local/freetds/lib/libtds.dylib
