This never worked for us, as we had DatabaseAccess set to None. FB
would then refuse to create the new database. I think this was with
version 1.5.1.

Yes. Below is an example from one of my scripts

SET SQL DIALECT 3;

CREATE DATABASE '127.0.0.1:dnfdb'
USER 'DNFDB_USER'
PASSWORD 'h6tr3sc7'
PAGE_SIZE 8192
DEFAULT CHARACTER SET ISO8859_1;
