The Userguide of Codeigniter 3 (still Release Candidate) mentions that now has support for Firebird:

Added Interbase / Firebird database support via the ibase driver.

This means that the installation package CI 3 includes it, although you could previously use Firebird in CodeiIgniter 2 by the driver developed by Carlos García ( https://github.com/cgarciagl/Firebird-for-Codeigniter ) .

We can confirm that CodeIgniter 2 is a stable platform where I ‘ve done development with very good results in the past.

I also put the direction of an article I wrote about using Firebird with CodeIgniter 2, in my blog:

ps: news via firebird.com.mx

There seems to be a small problem with Firebird on Yosemite (OSX 10.10), it looks like Apple have finally deprecated StartupItems, and currently SuperServer uses this to start itself on reboot.

The Lazarus team would like to announce the first release candidate for
the upcoming Version 1.4.

We would like to invite all users to test this release candidate.
