I don't think Firebird works on Solaris or SPARC cpus, so it makes no sense
to compile in firebird support on that platform.

Remove the ibconnection unit or put it in an {$IFNDEF SOLARIS}. (or should
that be SUNOS ?)

You'll have to remove TIBConnection from the registercomponents call as
well.

If that works, we'll put it in the sources in SVN.
