You'll also need ODBC drivers.  DBI::ODBC connects to existing ODBC
drivers much as DBI::mysql connects using installed mysql libraries.

I haven't tried them but have heard good things about Open Link
ODBC on the DBI list.  http://www.openlinksw.com  They have FreeBSD,
Linux and Solaris drivers among others.

I think I've convinced the client in question to use mysql though :)
