Did some tests, and got some more info: a Vista PC running FB2.1 (client
*and* server) can run both Local and TCP/IP.

A Vista PC running FB1.5.4 (client *and* server) gets the error when
running Local but not TCP.

So, it looks like the new protocol changes in FB 2 have gotten around
the Vista issue (whatever it was...)
