I would suggest

$ yum install unixODBC unixODBC-devel
$ rpmbuild -ta freetds-0.64RC2.tar.gz
(or whatever version you prefer)

To test you could try automatic tests, just setup a test account on
server, PWD file (see
http://www.freetds.org/userguide/confirminstall.htm#TESTS) and issue a
"make test". I think you are interested only in odbc so perhaps you can
shortening tests with

$ ./configure ....
$ make
$ cd src/tds
$ make test
$ cd ../odbc
$ make test

compile from sources is required to use our unit tests.
