If I understand Paul Reeves' post, it is because they (the Firebird
project) use VS2005 to build now instead of VS2003. This allowed them
to provide a Win64 build.

Vista and Server 2008 ship with these dlls installed btw, although it
is a shame to lose this simplicity for older installs. Hopefully a
compromise can be found.
