You should just need the standard ODBC driver for DB2, no need to look for 
"pyodbc compatible" endorsement.  A quick search on the IBM website brought me 
to the following download page which offers an ODBC driver for DB2:
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=4020&uid=swg21385217 (seems to 
require registration to download)
BTW let's keep support requests in the forum so that the issue tracker can be 
reserved for tracking bugs in pyodbc.
