The documentation could be clearer on that point.  Since you're having
problems with "make", you might need GNU make, source code for which can be
had at http://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/make/make-3.80.tar.gz.

No, it doesn't.  :-)  There's perl code embedded in convert.c, but we use it
only in special circumstances, to regenerate tds_willconvert.h.  All you
need to build FreeTDS is a good "make" and a C compiler.  

Please install GNU make and try again.  If you still have trouble, please do
the following:

$ script make.log
$ make --version
$ ./configure
$ make
$ exit

Send us the first 10 lines and the last 50 lines of make.log.  I think that
will be enough information for us to help you.  Also, are you using the
nightly snapshot, or the 0.60 release?
