You could say it's a sqsh error.  You could also blame Solaris or autoconf.  
But the solution will probably come from you.

Did you configure FreeTDS using --disable-libiconv?  If not, you need to supply 
the sqsh link command with the name of the iconv library.  Most operating 
systems these days include that function with their standard C library, but 
apparently Solaris isn't one of them.  


HTH.
