Yep, it's there alright.  It confirms what you said and what I read in
documentation about the library having to be in interbase/UDF/ or in a
directory listed in interbase/isc_config.

Unfortunately, still the only library that is working for me is ib_udf.  I
guess it must be something in how I'm building my udf library.
