I need a little help linking to the iODBC DM that comes with OS X.  I'm
trying to test my new bsqlodbc utility against Sybase's driver to compare
behaviors.  But I don't quite get how the linker gets its information.  

I installed Sybase's ODBC driver on OS X. I added a user DSN.  I
downloaded and installed Xcode.  I created a new project called "bsqlodbc"
and brought in only that file from FreeTDS.  It compiled without much
fuss.  

Sybase's ODBC User Guide (aseodbc.pdf) says:

        "The iODBC Driver Manager includes a dynamic library named
libiodbc.dylib, 
typically located in the /usr/lib directory. 
*  Pass the -liodbc flag to the linker."

I do that in my project's linker properties: in "other linker flags" I put
"-liodbc".  But I don't see that flag appear anywhere in the build log,
and the executable complains:

$ build/Debug/bsqlodbc -S $S -U $U -P $P
ZeroLink: unknown symbol '_SQLAllocHandle'
Abort trap

What am I doing wrong?  

Many thanks.
