If you were able to build a recent Firebird from sources on FreeBSD, without
using the FreeBSD port, I'd very much like to see the patches. :)
I use FreeBSD A LOT, and being stuck on Firebird 2.0.3 means I haven't seen
many of the more recent features.
Thanks for your work!!
Nige.

Can you send the patches to ports at freebsd.org ?
seems that firebird port is quite stalled there (no maintainer from what i
see)
