Without the patch, the code looks in the dirname of the dirname of
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/dbi.rb, which is /usr/lib/ruby, for a directory called
"DBD". That directory is one level lower - in the "1.8" sub-directory.
Perhaps libdbd-odbc-ruby1.8 should be installing its driver in
/usr/lib/ruby but that didn't sound likely to me. libdbd-mysql-ruby1.8
behaves like the ODBC driver.
