We use TDS 8.0 with SQL Server 2000 and 2005 without problems. A quick 
test this morning shows that 4.2, 7.0 and 8.0 all work with both 2000 
and 2005.

Clients run FreeTDS 0.63 and DBD-Sybase 1.06. The perl scripts log in 
with SQL Server authentication, but using a dedicated login name rather 
than "sa".

Database versions are:
SQL Server 2000 service pack 3 on Windows 2000
SQL Server 2005 service pack 2 (64-bit) on Windows 2003

Hope this helps!
