Why do I get error "'[unixODBC][Driver Manager]Can't open cursor lib 'libodbccr'" on AIX?

The unixODBC Driver Manager included with the Oracle ODBC driver distribution on AIX is unable to load the cursor library. Applications that try to use the unixODBC cursor library fail with the error "Can't open cursor lib 'libodbccr'." To work around this, extract the cursor library from /usr/local/easysoft/unixODBC/lib/libodbccr.a and symbolically link libodbccr.a.1 to libodbccr.so.1. For example, as root:

$ cd /usr/local/easysoft/unixODBC/lib
$ rm libodbccr.a.1
$ ar -x libodbccr.a
$ ln -s libodbccr.so.1 libodbccr.a.1
