tsql -C says its using version 5.0 and all my efforts to tell it to use 4.2 or 8.0 seem to fail.
tsql -C only lists the compile-time defaults. Naturally those can only be changed by recompiling with different settings.
But of course that doesn't mean you can't tell it to use a different TDS version through freetds.conf, for example.
tsql -C will still keep listing the compile-time default.
I'm hoping that 5.0 might be incompatible for logins, or something,
Not just for logins; 5.0 is utterly incompatible with any release of MS SQL. It's only for Sybase servers:

In any case how do I set the version number? I've tried the environment variable and ~/.freetds.conf
Yet those two are the only ways of setting the TDS version post compilation, through configuration files or the environment variable TDSVER.

If it's not working, you are doing something wrong.
Or you may be just mistakenly expecting them to change the output of tsql -C.
