The problem is that "makefile.bcc55", which is written for Borland make, includes "../makefile.environ", which is for GNU make. So, neither the Borland nor the GNU make utilities will work.
I can try to write a proper "makefile.environ-bcc" file, or however you wold prefer to call it.

Borland compiler is not supported for driver officially now , but if you make working patch for this compiler I can apply it.

I wouldn't bother with BCC either, but the official 32-bit ODBC .dll performed worse than expected for me, and recompiling it with my [dated] studio, all options set for speed, did not help. Anyway:
bcc55-compile-204.diff fixes the compilation of OdbcJdbc with BCC55.
I removed the pre-compiled header options, because they generate a lot of temporary files, and one will need a really ancient machine to see any difference in compilation speed.
Since it's a release build only, I added -O2 -Oc (optimizations for speed). Compiling for i686 and without RTTI produces a slightly smaller and faster .dll, but the difference is small.
bcc55-odbuild-204.diff alters the build.bat targets, since IscDbc and OdbcJdbcSetup can not be build with BCC. You may prefer to change "all:" in makefile.bcc55 instead, or cut the makefile.
Well, that's about it... I recompiled the driver, and tested it by creating some aliases, and copying a ~250MB database with ~150 tables.
