there is a comment in ExternalProject_firebird.mk that essentially says that firebird 2.5 bundles tommath (and atomic_ops) - is that no longer the case in 3.0? i suggest if at all possible prefer to use what's bundled in firebird already, that should save you a ton of makefile writing. > - Older odb files (with fb. 2.5) should work with the new version.
