I came here in the 1st place to explain the situation and ask for
support (testing and co). All I got except from Vlad, Mario and Milan
(if I remember names correctly :) was complains and nothing else. I
did not stop since to try to find a solution, a viable and tested
solution. When it came to actually do the work, test and valid a
solution, the so patient Lester was silent, suddenly. And the cycle
begins again once I came back here to try again to solve this problem
(nothing happening in the mean time).

Also note that I also gave solutions with or without custom builds
(which is the main problem here).

I'd to stop when Lester begins to spread misleading info and FUDs all around.

And as firebird is also a very limited niche, it is indeed not worth
the troubles but see my other reply to Milan for a more sensible
answer.
