Firebird 2.5 database compatibility between 32bit and 64bit versions

Are there any known issues with database compatibility (GDB files) when switching Firebird Classic server from 64bit to 32bit or vice versa? I found information, that databases are compatible among Classic and Superserver, but this information was for Firebird 2.1 and I didn't find anything newer - http://firebirdsql.org/rlsnotesh/install210.html#install-model

The databases are compatible between Classic, SuperClassic and SuperServer as well as 32bit and 64bit within same Firebird version (between versions it's recommended (needed since FB3) to do backup & restore). It's the same code, same structure, just different execution model.
