FlameRobin does not create DDL scripts (yet), so perhaps you can show
them to us?

Please note that FlameRobin simply parses the input script and sends it
to Firebird, it does not alter anything, so if the script makes hell in
FR, to will probably do it in isql too.

Also, note that automatic commiting of DDL is by default *on* in isql,
and by default *off* in FlameRobin. This could make a very big
difference. FlameRobin 0.4.0 (soon to be released) will support isql's
SET AUTODDL command. Until then I suggest you don't use FR to run
scripts generated by isql (for example with isql -x) as there is no way
to turn autocommit on.
