What's new in this version:

Core Engine/API:
- The internal record compression routines exhibited some bugs
- A SELECT statement incurred more non-indexed reads in the third v.2.5 release candidate than the same statement in v.2.1.3
- ALTER DOMAIN was not possible in a database that had been migrated from an earlier version
- The WAIT mode and lock timeout parameters for the external transaction of EXECUTE STATEMENT were not matched to the corresponding parameters of the local transaction
- A regression introduced with the fix for CORE-2893 caused double processing of nodes when preparing a statement, prompting an abort to occur in the debug build
- Parameters would not work with NOT IN from a selectable stored procedure
- Incorrect LEFT JOIN result using table and derived constant subquery
- Attempt to run EXECUTE STATEMENT on an external data source failed when the data source was an InterBase 4.1 (ODS 8) database
- Batch inserts were noticeably slowed down if they were all executed in a single transaction and involved triggers that posted events

Server Crashes:
- The server would crash when isc_dql_exec_immed3_m() was called for CREATE DATABASE ... in a NULL transaction

Command-line Utilities:
- The gsec utility was sending its output list of users to stderr instead of stdout
