Heh... turns out Apple's ODBC Administrator utility doesn't do a darn
thing. I went in and edited the odbc.ini file that the ODBC
Administrator should be using; however, the ODBC Administrator doesn't
apply changes to the odbc.ini file, and it doesn't even read them back!
However, my Cocoa application was able to successfully connect to my
MySQL database once I copied the contents of the odbc.ini file from
MyODBC (for MySQL).
Now I don't mind doing that, but what's the deal giving us a nice GUI
application that does nothing besides trick us into thinking it does
something? It took me 2 hours to finally find someone who explained
that ODBC Administrator doesn't do anything and that anyone would be
better off editing odbc.ini by hand. And indeed, one copy/paste later,
I was connected to my database.

You wouldn't happen to know a good resource on using iODBC for the
Mac, would you? My code is failing to connect to the database.
