I have unixODBC-2.2.10-3 on this box.

Connector/ODBC 5.1 requires unixODBC 2.2.12 or later. From unixODBC changelog:

Add UNICODE wrapper functions in libodbcinst. The ini file is still ascii, so its not got full support at the moment, but any apps that need the W functions should build now

I've added a note to this effect in the Unix install section of the Connector/ODBC documentation.
