It is read-only in an after insert trigger, in both Fb 1.5 and Fb
2.0. In 1.5 an attempt to write to it is a no-op, so you won't know
that it didn't happen; in Fb 2.0 it will actually cause an
exception, recycling sqlcode -151, isc_code 335544359, symbol
isc_read_only_field, message "Attempted update of read-only column".
