--- Comment #1 from Caolán McNamara <[email protected]> ---
hmm, firebird saves using the native platform endianness and alignment as far
as I can see so its a platform-dependent file format. Which rather sucks for
something to haul around in the embedded database case where the db can be
opened on any arbitrary system. The exact failure in this case is big-endian
ppc is unable to open the little-endian sample database.

One solution might be to not store the .fbd in the odb but instead always
"backup" to the odb and "restore" from the odb which would use the
platform-neutral .fbk archival format IIRC
