Building on Alpha VMS 7.3 to access MS SQL server 2000, using TDS80, no ODBC. Fiddling the [vms]configure.com procedure to ignore the iconv files and replace them worked around the problem.

Chris,

See

http://lists.ibiblio.org/pipermail/freetds/2004q1/015234.html

where I pointed out that I had failed to check for UTF-8 conversions
as well as UCS-2 and supplied a patch to do so.  Sounds like you have
a workaround but you could also install the missing files.
