Helen,

The version of Firebird here is 1.5, or WI-V6.3.3.4870 Firebird 1.5 to
be more specific. I would appreciate it if you would post a bug report
about this, thanks.

In the meantime, can you give me a reassuring answer to the first part
of my posting: can I get rid of these problems by re-creating indexes,
supposing I know which one?
