Lets clear this up.

The ONLY thing you need for a "client only" install is the
fbclient.dll in your applications path. Some connection components
require this to be renamed to gds32.dll, but that is all you need.

Your connection library may require some dlls etc. You do not need any
registry settings, environment variable manipulations or any other
special thing for it to work.
