Yeah I checked if the php_interbase.dll line was uncommented and it
was. I also copied over an fbclient.dll and renamed it gds32.dll.

When i run phpinfo, i see nothing about a module being loaded for
interbase. When i try a few scripts they either dont work or
complain that the interbase module is not loaded.
