What we have done since 5.3.x (where x>3) is to use the builds from
firebird, no matter which CRT they use. The library shares nothing
with the client, that's why it is safe to use it instead of trying to
build firebird client libraries ourselves. Next snaps should have the
latest versions. However the user is responsible to install firebird
clients, just like with the Oracle drivers (f.e.).
