--with-unixodbc is mentioned in the following three psqlodbc CVS files:

configure.ac
odbc.sgml
README.unix

Another thing is the dependencies with the PostgreSQL server:

According to the documentation in README.unix, ODBC driver compilation
requires
PostgreSQL server sources.

I compiled from the CVS sources, but I did not use the
recommended PostgreSQL 7.3 sources (see README.unix).
I compiled the ODBC driver against PostgreSQL 8.0.1.

The first command, that is needed for compilation, is
aclocal-1.6 -I . -I $PGSRC/config

It refers to the PostgreSQL server's sources.
