Here are few:

JasperReports seems to be most popular atm. It's Java:
http://jasperforge.org/sf/projects/jasperreports

Also in Java:
http://www.oreports.com/

Delphi, C++ Builder, Kylix, .Net, Mono:
http://reportman.sourceforge.net/webserver.html

There's also OpenRPT for Postgres, but you could probably use FB via ODBC:
http://www.openrpt.com/


I know there was some php based tool as well, but I can't remember.
Perhaps you should ask at firebird-php mailing list, as I think I've
read about it there.
