Ugh, I don't like it either.  I'll review your mail in case you told me
already, but I don't understand why tds_iconv should care about incomplete
end-of-buffer sequences.  It should return normally, leaving errno set to
EILSEQ, and let the caller determine if that's an error warranting a user
message or not.  

Please, let's not overload TDS_ICONV_DIRECTION.  We can bury a flag in
TDSSOCKET or TDSICONVINFO if need be.
