Had same problem some days ago (xubuntu 7.10).
Seems that there are problems between libfbclient.so and
interbase-php5.so in ubuntu distros.
I solved problem ( ehm... Milan solved for me) rebuilding
interbase-php5.so from sources.
To do that, you need (as comes to mind, not sure 100% of names of packages)

apt-get install build-essential
apt-get install php5-dev
apt-get install firebird2.0-dev


May be you need also

apt-get install libxml2-dev

because had errors without, don't know if it's important for
interbase-php5.so
I downloaded all php-5.2.5 tarball, then in dir where you expanded php5
sources

cd ext/interbase
phpize
./configure --with-interbase=shared,path/to/firebird
make

then you'll find your correct interbase-php5.so in ./libs directory
path/to/firebird comes to mind as /usr/lib/firebird/2.0, but not 100%
sure, 'cause I've not a ubuntu machine near.
