ODE's trimesh collider already builds an AABB tree, so you don't have
to worry about that.

If you are comfortable traversing the BSP tree yourself (you are
probably doing it for rendering anyway), you can locate the brushes
near your character and then do a plane/capsule (assuming you are
using capsule) test against your characters geom. Just skip the ODE
spaces entirely and use dCollide() directly.
