ibm_db.connect() fails

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. prepare an uncataloged database connexion DSN string :
dsn = 'DRIVER={IBM DB2 ODBC 
DRIVER};DATABASE=MYBASE;HOSTNAME=myhost;PORT=50101;PROTOCOL=TCPIP'

2. Try to open the connection using the previous string as DSN
c = ibm_db.connect(dsn,'myusername','mypasswd')

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

The connection should be established (hosts, users and so on were obviously 
checked and work fine for instance trhough a JDBC connector.

Instead the connection fails with following error :

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
SystemError: error return without exception set

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
ibm_db port for mac os x 10.6

Please provide any additional information below.

Please uninstall and install ibm_db driver again. Before installing it again 
make sure that ibm_db-xxx-pyxx.egg is completely have removed from 
/location/of/site-packages/ and listing of this driver from 
/location/of/site-packages/easy_install.py.

If you got any error or warning during installation then let me know about that.
