I've had this a couple of times in the past, and it was caused by duff
saves to the blob. I ended up just deleting the blob reference from
IB_SQL and creating a new record, but I suspect you are seeing something
slightly different. One possible 'cause' may be that the blob id's are
getting messed up.

Could you build the data for blob you want to save in memory and then
save the results, so you are not using multiple blob id's at the same time?

Bear in mind that 5.6 *IS* an old version of Interbase and I think the
errors I saw WERE probably from that time, so this may just be something
that was never fixed in Interbase!
