I know I've seen this but can't find a reference ...

AH found http://tracker.firebirdsql.org/browse/CORE-3121 now and
http://firebird.1100200.n4.nabble.com/Error-Restoring-v2-1-Database-to-v2-5-td2994314.html


I don't remember backing up this particular site BACK to 2.1 but it is always
possible. There are a few things which broke moving to 2.5 and the reason for
moving up now is to test prior to updating on site. So is all that is needed to
delete RDB$ADMIN from the 2.1 version prior to backing up? The site is live
again now so I can't do anything until tonight now.
