Does this mean that page sizes less than 4096 cannot be used even when
explicitly set during a restore?

I restored a db created with FB 2.1 and wanted to see how a smaller
page size would affect performance. However, whilst gbak reported this:

gbak:Reducing the database page size from 4096 bytes to 1024 bytes
gbak:created database /backup/firebird/test1.rdb, page_size 1024 bytes

when I check the page size of the newly created db using gstat it
reports that the page size is 4096.
