It's an FbException wrapping an IscException with the following message:

  I/O error during "CreateFile (open)" operation for file
  "C:\PROGRAMDATA\FOO\BAR.FIREBIRD"
  Error while trying to open file

and if I watch what happens with ProcMon.exe, I see that there is an
attempt to open the database file, which fails because of a sharing
issue.

What I find suspect, is the fact that calling FbBackup the first time
seems to load fbembed.dll and various other related files; however, all
these files have already been loaded previously.

Should this work with the embedded server? Might I have an issue of DLL
hell where two instances of the embedded server somehow get loaded?
