Which is exactly what the doc (README_EMBEDDED.TXT) says.

If external libraries are required for your application,
then you should have them separately. Most probably, it
will be INTL support (fbintl.dll) or UDF libraries. To
be able to use them, you should place them into the
directory tree which emulates the Firebird server one,
i.e. has subdirectories like /intl or /udf:

c:\my_app\app.exe
c:\my_app\gds32.dll
c:\my_app\ib_util.dll
c:\my_app\firebird.conf
c:\my_app\firebird.msg
c:\my_app\intl\fbintl.dll
c:\my_app\udf\fbudf.dll

And it also states that you can place them in a separate directory if
you define this in the firebird.conf file.
