And I had. There is a possible chain of triggers or foreign constraints
with ON UPDATE CASCADE rule and recursive procedures that will make
you a trouble even on database creation stage. Yes, this problems are much
easier to reproduce while altering metadata, not creating it.
It is fixed in FB1.5 anyway.

In this case this error probably means than you have 2 CS connections or some
uncommitted transactions or some open prepared statements (i.e.
possibly Jaybird problems).

Did you check this script on FB1.5 ? Can you send it to me if it fails
there ?
