Chicken and egg.  It won't turn on the flag that says the free toolkit is there unless that program compiles successfully but it won't compile successfully because the free toolkit doesn't include ODBC.

That should not happen.   It should not use ODBC to test the compiler, this is working on our systems
here with the free tools.   If you want you can send me (off the list) your CMakeOutput.log and
CMakeError.log files and we can try to figure out what is going on.
