A 64bit Windows system will run either 64 or 32 bit applications. The
client/server wire protocol for Firebird is word-size agnostic, at least in
the word sizes of 32 and 64 bit (don't try it on a PDP-10). Within a
single executable, things work better if every thing agrees on the default
size of a word. So, the client library which links to the application
should use the same word size as the application.

At least that's my understanding.

Good luck,
