Set the TDSDUMP environment variable, re-run, and look at the log
output.  You should see a message from this code:

tdsdump_log(TDS_DBG_FUNC, "error: tds_iconv_init() returned %d; "
        "could not find a name for %s that your iconv accepts.\n"
        "use: \"configure --disable-libiconv\"", ret, names[ret-1]);

Earlier messages may also be useful.  

If we can it track down, it should be a simple fix.  I've seen FreeTDS
run on Tru64.
