You need the dev tools for OSX (XCode). This is on a seperate CD and 
distributed with OSX, afaik.

You can also download the dev tools through apples devloper site. 
http://developer.apple.com

This is completely unrelated to freetds and any further issues regarding 
compiling software under OSX would be better answered in a more targeted 
forum.
