There is no one table that lists every datatype by TDS version and
whether it's supported in FreeTDS.  As far as I know, though, all TDS
7.2 types are fully supported, meaning that FreeTDS can parse and
convert any datatype that comes down the wire.  

That's for the current release.  In the development branch, Frediano
largely has 7.3 working in ODBC.  Work is needed on the db-lib side
and, ideally, for ct-lib, too, although it's been a dog's age since
anyone's picked up that baton.
