Yes.  

$ ldd `which sqsh`
/usr/local/bin/sqsh:
         -lc.12 => /usr/lib/libc.so.12
         -lct.3 => /usr/pkg/lib/libct.so.3
         -ltds.5 => /usr/local/lib/libtds.so.5
         -lm.0 => /usr/lib/libm387.so.0
         -lm.0 => /usr/lib/libm.so.0
         -lcrypt.0 => /usr/lib/libcrypt.so.0
         -lreadline.5 => /usr/pkg/lib/libreadline.so.5
         -lcurses.6 => /usr/lib/libcurses.so.6

It looks like your linker is not finding libct.  Try pointing your
LDFLAGS to the installed FreeTDS libraries.  I have a little script
"regen" that sets the environment before building sqsh:

$ head regen
export LDFLAGS="${LDFLAGS} -L /usr/pkg/lib"
export CFLAGS="${CFLAGS}  -g -I/usr/pkg/include"
export SYBASE=/usr/local
./configure  --with-readline=/usr/pkg

HTH.
