it is only needed at design time and then only at package installation
times and then only if you want the "InterBase Admin" components to
appear in the palette. There are many ways to have them regardless of
the gds32.dll version; some involve recompiling IBX, some don't. See
my reply to Alan McDonald a few days ago in the IBO list.
