Report on Firebird support on August 2, 2014: https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/firebird-support/conversations/messages/124982 (archive) about access violation when running fbembed.dll with an applicaiton.

Vlad indicated: "You must call fb_shutdown before unload fbembed.dll"

If this is the case: README.fb_shutdown.txt (an FB 2.5.x version) says: "fb_shutdown() was primarily designed to be used by engine itself, but also can be used in user applications" and "Normally it should not be used, because Firebird libraries (both kinds - embedded or pure client) do call it automatically at exit()"

So I suppose that readme will need to be adjusted to something like "User applications need to call fb_shutdown() when shutting down embedded Firebird engines"
