No, it passes on errors to the user for sure.

But I must say that I thought Firebird did raise errors in these cases,
at least, it does so when removing a (used) parameter.

A quick test, however, show that it does not when adding a parameter.

Even removing a parameter doesn't raise an error. Weird.

Nope, it doesn't do that :-)
