I'd suggest compiling the UDF with rpath set to 
/usr/lib/firebird/2.1/lib/ (or whatever is the current firebird 
installed).

Another clean way would be to ship a separate libib-util package (with 
the library iin /usr/lib), but given how tight the library is coupled 
with the server, I doubt this is more useful than an rpath.
