This is a known problem that we can't do a lot about from our side.  Oracle needs to issue a version of their driver that's actually compatible with RHEL-5's unixODBC.  For us to fix it by replacing unixODBC would break every package that depends on unixODBC, which rather defeats the purpose of having an interface manager.  (The SQLGetPrivateProfileStringW symptom is only the tip of the iceberg --- there are some 32-vs-64-bit issues that are much more fundamental.)
