My plan (for linux) was:
Search fbclient.so search fbclient.so.2 (2.x series of firebird)
search fbclient.so.1 (1.x series of Firebird) if the library name has not been

fbclient.so should not be searched. It could point to anything, including 
versions of the library not supported by the unit.

@Michael
I have to agree with Jonas here. The unversioned symlink is potential
trouble. Other than that, your solution sounds fine.

Potential trouble ? After we have been loading it for the past 10 years ? Let's not get carried away...

I will not add it, but only so you guys would sleep easier, not because I think there is any real danger involved :-)

Michael.
