Are you shure you specified charset for connection?

There was such a bug in gbak (or server, not shure) that was fixed.
I can't remember exactly in what build number. 608 and higher
certainly are not affected by this bug. Take fresh build and check
existance of line with "RDB$SECURITY" (Not "RDB$SECURITY_CLASS") in
the table RDB$GENERATORS in your database. If it exists, delete it
before backing up.
